My mother is
a pretty extraordinary woman and the list of things she has done for me is
endless. There are some very large
things, as one might imagine, but there are also every day, small kindnesses
that still mean the world to me.
Recently, in one more attempt to clean out my closet, I pulled out a
couple of items that I thought were too worn.
As I wasn't completely sure, I asked my mother (who is quite the fashion
plate) what she thought of one of the jackets.
I wanted to know if I could still wear it. Although I loved the taupe
color of the jacket, we decided that it had probably seen better days. The next day, my mother showed up with a
department store box. And lo and behold,
there was another taupe jacket inside.
