They just flatten us, our egos, our belief systems, our ideas about what matters. Someday she will read this and not cringe because she can accept the truth that your heart was highjacked and placed outside your body. Lovely piece.
There ought to be a law against writing such beautiful words with the intent of making a reader bawl her eyes out. There ought to be a law about how much a mother can love her children and write about it in a way that connects her to any mother who's ever loved so ferociously .There ought to be a law about people like you having too many gifts. But since there's not, I'll simply say: thank you.
You brought and raised a beautiful human in this world. I still have a few years to go before the sending off to college but I think about the letting go at least once a week (I probably shouldn't admit that). It is true love we have for them and raising them to be independent from that feeling we have is so hard. You are a wonderful at putting that into perspective. Thank you. I will stop tearing up now :)

Oof, what a perfect thing to say. Thank you Molly.
This is so beautiful and so precious. What a blessing beyond measure. <3

You know you make me bawl my eyes out right back. So maybe I'll do that for her one day. Who knows...
Another tear jerker! Beautiful
Not me just openly weeping into my coffee right now. My baby turned 23 last week. This piece hit me in ALL the feels. 🥹
Happy birthday to your always-baby!

Or, don’t stop. I can attest to the fact that there’s no time limit on tears. ❤️
So lovely! 💕
She’s beautiful! ❤️
I cried. You are a wonderful mom who is way more than enough. You should never doubt that. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
