Happy Mother's Day, Mom!

This is the first Mother's Day I've spent at home in something like 20 years or so. Our annual walleye fishing trip which normally falls on this weekend was moved to next week. Dee (my mom) will hate this picture. It was taken by Cindy Lesky at the staged play reading of my one-act in September 2010. But I think it captures my mother's essence well (and I can see she's intensely listening to the play reading).


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 wide world over.


- George Cooper


Happy Mother's Day, Mom. I love you.
