my first 30 seconds as a mom
7:30am, 3-23-84
poem from the past
I'm so glad I found this poem online! I memorized it when I was a kid, to recite to my mom on Mother's Day. Every word is still true:
Only One Mother
Hundreds of stars in the pretty sky,
Hundreds of shells on the shore together,
Hundreds of birds that go singing by,
Hundreds of lambs in the sunny weather.
Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the world wide over.

priceless
When it comes to the people I work with in publishing, I am very, very blessed. They just did the nicest thing for me!
"In honor of The Ocean Between Us, and because this book is such a beautiful tribute to military families, the agency has made a donation in your name to Wounded Warrior ."
The worst wound of all is to be forgotten. You can help instantly by going to the Wounded Warrior site and clicking "Donate Now." [image error](source)
