I enjoyed every line of this post. What a beautiful adopted Mamma, who to this day brings you comfort. I respect her taking you into her folds, her humor and the fact that she relished your appreciation of her amazing cooking.

What a warm embrace she gave you then and it lasts throughout today. She can feel this.

She’s a classic example of how life provides us with individuals you give us lifetime strength when we least would have expected it while others who we expect it from and deserve it from, missed their opportunity to be in the graces of those like Mamma.
