The mother/daughter community
You know all the usual ways to celebrate your mother/daughter bond. Gifts chosen with care. Cards, hand-drawn with a stick-figure portrait of you, or mailed just in time for Mother’s Day. Outings just for the two of you. Now you can share a little of that experience with the rest of us. Just fill in this form (the photo’s optional).
I often think and write about the mother/bond, and I’ve learned a lot from other women’s experience. Please let me know if you’re willing to be contacted someday. You may not hear from me, but I’m always adding names to my informal, virtual think tank.
