So lovely, Ann. You wrote this just the way I wish I could! You make me wish I'd had a baby in May. Happy birthday to your baby West Panther.

Thanks, Ann, for putting into words many of my own thoughts as I have faced life-changing moments. I have paused considerably to reflect on the fact that we are forever changed EACH DAY by life's twists and turns in both positive and negative ways.
But, isn't life wonderful???

Where would we be, if we had lost Ann and her youngest sixteen years ago? Thank goodness for the little (and the big) miracles in our lives. Beautifully wrought.

Wow Ann, what a great column.
And I love that your son responded.

I also found some irony in the fact that in a later column you forgot to notice the hawthorns this year.

As always Mondays are better because of you.

Regards, Jack
