Happy Mother's Day!
I didn't get to make my "Mother's Day is coming up" speech at the P. school this year, which was too bad, because it's one of my favorites. Mother's Day is important: Moms are important. According to Mr. T., Moms are to be respected. By the way, that last link a relatively long "song" by Mr. T., so don't click it if you've got low bandwidth. I've been really fortunate to have an amazing and loving mother, and also, being at the P. school, I had a few people there in the foreign language office who were more than willing to mother me as well. So today being Mother's Day, at least, in the US, I just want to say thanks, Mom.
On a side note, when I went out with some friends here in Oxford to find a Mother's Day Card for my Mom, the look of terror on their faces was palpable: "did we forget Mother's Day? Oh no! I have to find something for Mother's Day!" Only after I told them that England's Mothering Sunday was, like, two months ago, did they calm down.
