A Reflection of Me

I happened to see a reflection of me in one of my sons in something he's done Was I too so naïve? Does he really believe he can change the whole world if he rolls up his sleeves I yearned to tell him not to spend his time... Then held my fool tongue ~ Let him cross his own Rhine

I rarely see myself in any of my three, except for the TYPE A that clearly resonates from all of them. No advice from me is ever welcomed, so I think you are wise.

Now, that was an unusual comment --- 'No advice from me is ever welcomed.' Spoken like a true mother and grandmother. ~ Wise old hoot
