What I Like About Being Mother:
* When August tells the kids, "I brought this candy bar just for Mama because she's special," they don't question that I deserve it.
What I Don't Like About Being A Mother:
* Being omniscient. Not that I know ALL things -- I still haven't figured out what happened to all of Dilly's new socks I just bought. But when I see Titan playing with a new gumball-machine necklace that isn't knotted at either end, and I'm tired of trying to prevent disasters so I don't say anything to him... Seven minutes later I'm scouting out the parking lot in a bitter wind trying to find a cheap plastic pendant that (unaccountably) fell off the string on the way to the van. And I knew it would happen all along.
