Thank you. My mother-in-law called me from her daughter’s place before I had a chance to call her with the greeting (she’s from India and didn’t grow up with the day). My own mother died decades ago and it can be bothersome when there are all of the mother-daughter newspaper articles and I can’t even thank mine. Was also bothered back in the prekid/infertlity workup days, we quickly learned not to go out for brunch on that Sunday. Son called after finishing a final today- beyond expectations, especially when many more finals this week.

A most memorable Mother’s Day was when a fellow woman physician and I went with our very young sons to a park on the day- both of our husbands were on call and we needed to spend our day mothering instead of working or relaxing.
