It’s Mother’s Day as I write this. I just sat outside in my robe under my massive lilac tree that’s heavy in bloom and drank my tea. It was a quiet, private morning moment. The sun was glorious.

Sometimes the simplest, uncomplicated moments in life are the very best. The lesson of gratitude is re-taught to me during moments like this morning as I sit and think of my greatest personal creation, my son Bill.
