A Tea Party for My Mother



A Tea Party for My Mother

I've come across some beautiful blogs these past few weeks. My favorites are not limited to those written by folks who garden or love to cook and eat. One in particular haunts me. It is a beautifully written journal of a last goodbye. I hope all of you will take some time to explore what's been written there. There are some days much like yours and mine. There are days when what is said will make you weep, but there are also moments of shared grace that will bring a smile or nod of recognition to your face. This is a love story of the highest order. It is also a story about learning how to say goodbye. If ever you had doubts about the power of words or the tenacity of the cords that bind mothers to their daughters, this intimate journal of two women, one strong, the other in decline, will lift your spirits and let theirs soar. I know you're busy, but I hope you'll steal a few moments to read A Tea Party for My Mother.
