I'm running errands and I'm
running late for lunch at home. I call home from the car on the speaker
phone when leaving the parking garage at the mall. Emmy Bo answers with
her twittering voice filling the inside of the car. I explain that I'm
on my way, she says:
"Ok. See you soon Mama. I love you." and then she give me a kiss through the phone, a kiss that fills up the inside of the car where I sit, making me feel the most wonderful warmth in my soul. And I'm thinking:
"This is life. This is love. This is what matters. This is why I'm here on this earth. To get this phone line kiss from my 11-year girl." Such a simple action that fills me with the deepest and most true love. Motherhood at its best. Eleven is a great age. And once again, its the small things in life that matters... like a kiss on the speaker phone in the car. Remember that.
