Honest and heartbreaking

Posted on Thu, 26 Mar 2015

Honest and heartbreaking words, Richard. Mums forgive because they know without tears that they are loved. And they always worry - even when the time for real concern has passed - (this, from experience). From her photo, she looks lovely. Tears...
