Happy Mother's Day to my mother-in-law — a title that took me a minute, but a relationship that didn't.

New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
You ask about my life like it matters, and you remember the answers, which matters even more.
Thank you for never positioning yourself as a critic when you could have so easily.
Wishing you slow hours, good company, and a meal you didn't plan.
You've shown me that being a mother doesn't end when the kids leave the house — it just changes shape.
Happy Mother's Day to the woman who made room for me without rearranging her own life around it.
