You accordioned a whole world of mothers and Maine and solitude and partnerships and writing into one small essay, and I feel like I've traveled all over, withstood the elements, and suffered under my mother's thumb. Thank you for this bit of loveliness.

I'm so glad you made it through mother melodrama, ice storms, and parking lot mishaps and still had positive thoughts to share with us. That's all that matters. ...And you did get some writing done!
