12. She would have been 94 a month later--thank you all!

Saturday

Our relationship was complicated, especially the past 15 years or so as I became the caretaker and she resented giving up control. She became both demanding and dependent; I have vowed never to make my kids feel the way she made me feel at times.

And my eyes are leaking at the warmth you all are providing this grey Saturday. Thank you so much
