Love, Mom (Notes From The Empty Nest)

2005

So many books. So many blogs. So little time. Wife, Mom, Friend, Soldiers’ Angel…. As Paul O’Neill (TransSiberian Orchestra, not the Sec of Treasury or the baseball player,though they might agree) said,”If you live in this country, you’ve won the lottery in life.” I have.

2014…2021

So very much has changed.  My life in no way resembles what it was  9 years ago.  There have been so many losses…so many.

But…I am still a Mom and I am now Amma to 2 grandsons and a grandaughter.  And in spite of all that has fallen away….I have still won the lottery in life.
