That's so sad Jonathan, but what a great story evolved from that situation. Your mum would have been so proud.

Sometimes I think it was a parting gift.

I think you've got a point there Jonathan, there are some strange events that can change your direction in life, and it certainly worked for you.

Nice! Sorry about your mom.

Thank you, Julie :)

My mom died on my birthday so my son and I have shared his ever since 1986...he was 11 and it was his idea. Kids help make things so clear. Gentle hugs to you both.

That's Great.

I find I learn so much from and about myself through my own daughters.

Sad yes, but also lovely. Now I need to read the story. Love and peace to you and your family.
