Mothering In Real Time

I don’t know how you do it,
Mothering in real time

Between Budget meetings and
Committee meetings and
Leadership meetings and
Board meetings and
Volunteer meetings and
Volunteer meetings and
Volunteer meetings…
You manage to
Listen and
Counsel and
Organize and
Discuss and
Attend and
Advise and
Be a friend to so many and
Most of all love…

Mothering in real time
Is what you do
And we would be lost without you
For my wife, Dawn Marie
Born of the House Fitzpatrick
Daughter of Celts and Teutons
Possessor of Furor Teutonicus
The First of Her Name
On this, her 19th Mother's Day
