I am convinced that my parents are angels living among us. I don't deserve them, but I am not letting go and will selfishly tie a thick rope (figuratively and literally if needed) around the three of us so I don't lose two of the greatest gifts bestowed upon me. After a bit of a rough night, I crashed for a few hours this afternoon. My mom was aware of my frustrations so she snuck downstairs and put this beautiful table centerpiece together while I was sleeping. She, of course, made the beautiful table runner for me and I love putting it out for the Christmas season. Tears came to my eyes when I woke up and found this masterpiece put together with her magical touch. Any lingering frustrations were gone because of my wonderful mom's love and kind act of service. She knew I needed a boost and found a way to buoy me up without uttering a single word. I love you, mom. Your patience and love does not go unnoticed.
