Oh Mez hun.

There's not a lot you can add to that.

It's so hard, when it's children.

Must have been very tough, though I'm glad you said it made you feel better, being there today.

One day, or a hundred years, doesn't really matter how long we're here.

It's how precious that time was, and how much love we inspired, not how long a time.

It's easy sometimes, being Mother Hen. Always worrying about, and doing, and seeing, to others' needs.

Make sure you save some of all that giving, for yourself hun. x
