To be like his mother. She doesn't even know how capable she is. She is quiet and still. She is unselfish and giving. Too easily affected by untruths. She is calm and patient, takes in every smile of his and savors every sigh. She'll never forget an important moment that he had because she was too busy fussing making sure her house was perfect. She loves him the same even if he isn't dressed in the most trendy attire. That is too far below her. She will sacrifice what she needs to keep him from catching the improbably cold. Who cares what they think, HE is more important. Her priorities are perfect and right. See her for what she is, not what you want her to be. She stands tall, moves with class, speaks with grace, and thinks often. He is one lucky child.

this is why you are my best friend. not that i needed another reminder why. a compliment that means more than anything to me. i love you :)
Dang it, I just erased my comment. I was trying to just edit it. Wow, that was quite poetic. I thought it was going to say an author at the end. What a sweet little guy - I think he must be Kim's, so ctue. And darling chair. And the book club..oopsie. I think that may be partially my bad. I would love to do it anytime though, maybe you should start it up again.
oh no, now I spelled cute wrong. I just love to leave lots of comments on your blog.
You put this so perfectly! Everything you said is exactly true of her, and Cohen is so lucky to have her as a mother. I strive to be more like her, in that she doesn't let the world around dictate what she will do and who she will become.
She is lucky to have a friend like you, one that understands how delicate yet strong she is, she is so unique and beautiful.
Beautiful Toni!!!
I have never seen little Cohen, he is cute.
