It's What Moms Do Best

The husband had surgery yesterday and he is fine. Well, he's in pain and cranky but all went according to plan.

My mom was there. I know she had genuine concern for the husband but she was mainly there to hold my hand and make sure I was okay.

We sat together and did the crossword puzzle. We read our books. When I started getting antsy, she held my hand again. As she pointed out, "If the Belle was still with us, she would be here."

Sometimes it frightens me how much I depend on the emotional support of my parents.
