After more than seven decades, for the first time in my life, there will be no phone call this morning to wish my mother a happy Mother's Day.
As she moved slowly toward the end of her life, I tried to convince myself that since I was among the most fortunate to have had so much mothering, it would be selfish of me to want even more.
I failed to do so. I miss her more than ever.
