... motherhood springs eternal ...

... when it comes to mothers there's always room for a big-up, but umbilical instinct and nascent feelings spring forth more spontaneously at certain times ... Mother's Day is one of those times ... it's no coincidence that date falls in the Spring, when flowers bloom and nature's fecundity rules ...

... I smile at the synchronicity when I consider that both Miss Ivy's children were born one standard gestational period after springtime ... immodestly speaking, those must've been good astrological years, and, appreciation for firm grounding and what continues to be a blessing, is a true constant in my life ...

... gwaaan Mama! ... massive love ...
