A "MOM" BLOG FOR ALL OF US

You may wonder about the title of my blog. Let me explain. One day long ago when I was getting my son ready for his bath, he asked if I could "Make it warmer." I was surprised by this request as the water seemed plenty warm to me, if not hot. Immediately I received a treasured glimpse into the amazing mind of a child: what he really wanted was for the water to be cooled. After all, he explained in his kid-like way: warm is COOLER than hot. "Make it warmer." I thought that was brilliant. I still do.

Dad's Turn

I walk in the room. My son (16 y/o) is sitting at the computer. I come up behind him, lean over and hug him. Then I give him a kiss on the forehead and walk away. He grins and keeps on listening to music and reading his email. He doesn’t wonder why. He knows I adore him.
