Happy Mother’s Day. One most of my Mother’s Days with you, you woke up to flowers on the table from Dad, and frustration about how Dad was off to his Sunday band practice. You’d say, “don’t those band members have mothers that they want to celebrate?” You laughed it off because you knew that you would get to spend the day with your children.

If you asked me about how my life has been the last few years, many people would expect me to say that it’s been phenomenal. I got my master’s degree, had great opportunities at work, got my clinical license, married my boyfriend of 8 years, and adopted the very best dog.
