Sis's big consern was that 'we boys' do something for mom on Mother's day.
So we will. My brother will be up at 0-dark-thirty to drive out to pick me up, drive down to pick Mom up, drive back up to the little church that Mom favors. My poor brother will spend most of his day tomorrow driving.
But we'll take her to church. And I will appreciate every moment of it. Even if she gets a little confused.
Because I don't have that many more Mother's Days left.
My daughters, of course, will call me and wish me a happy mother's day. They do every year, in a military kind of way.
And my brother assures me that he carries a fire extinguisher in case something untoward happens when I step into a church in a suit and tie.

Have a great day with your mom. Hope your suit is flame retardant!
Happy Mother's Day to all you great moms out there, and for those of you who have great moms. You continue to inspire this wretched soul.
Your most humble servant!
