And, not to discourage anyone, "it" returns as you grow elderly -- only then it 'cause of failing memory ('course, most of the things I forget aren't really worth remembering anyway -- so, I'm thankful for the clearing of my memory banks). Mothers amaze me. Years ago, when I taught college students about family roles and dynamics, at some point I used the analogy of Humpty Dumpty to describe the situation when Mom is so sick she cannot fufill her tasks and Dad has to take over. Even with the help of older children, it's the "all the king's horses and all the king's men" can't cover all the bases Mom does every day! Thank God (literally) for Moms -- and God bless and strengthen you all as you face the challenges of each day. Yes, so it is when the children are small.
