Happy Mother’s Day, Mom!
Rough Road by Aline Smithson and Tom Chambers

Just wanted to know that I’m thinking about you today, mom. I miss you. Thank you for you patience and humor, for allowing me to put you in a straight jacket when you were 85, and for all other indignities I put you though. I promise to do the same for my own children, should they request it. Give dad a hug for me.
