Dear Russell, my mom was a hero too, struggling through depression to be a good mother. What a delightful write for Janette's contest. I love it! Winning wishes for you, my friend, and thank you for stopping by. I think you and I would be very good friends if we lived nearby. Have fun this week while I'm off fishing in Key West. Love, Carolyn
