Thank you for sharing your well crafted memories! Richly drawn with an inevitable foreshadowing.
I also had a beautiful widowed mother, and also a firstborn. Our summers were in the mountains by a river where she manned the nurses tent at a girl scout camp, working to give us a vacation. I remember seeing and not understanding sad shadows between the drags of her cigarette.
Thank you for that insight. My MIL was a nurse who worked at a summer camp in the Northeast. Not a widow but the stories my husband tells of those camps feel polar opposite. I can see your mother in that setting. What women share. x
Beautiful imagery in these words. Thank you.
Just read this little gem and am in love. I know there are more stories, however bittersweet, to follow. Thank you for a lovely read.
Thank you! So many bittersweet as well as joyful to come.
