No Amount Of Distance Can Separate You From Those You Love

---

Those daughters of mine…

Christmasing together in DC…sent a message to that mother of theirs…so very…far away…

Omg Mom…it said…the code to the bathroom at the coffee shop…is…your phone number…

And so it was…a sign…one of those weird whacky signs…that their mother was there…even though…she wasn’t…there…

At the coffee shop…the museum…finishing homework…the sister knittingfest…

Heading down to Richmond…cozy times…silly times…eating at Boiling Crab times…

The bus to DC…the matching jammie fashion show…even the flight…on the way home…

Yes…mama me…was there for it all…included in it all…the quiet times…the stressful times…the fun times…the family…time…

Because no amount of distance…can separate you from those you love…near or far…here nor there…they’ll always be there…in your heart…
​
And those daughters of mine…agree…
