![]() Dear Mother in Law, I just can't tell you enough how grateful I am that you gave birth to your son. I don't know much about souls and lifetimes and all that stuff, but I can tell you that in the first decade of knowing him as friends, every single time I ran into him I felt an inexplicable sense of joy. He wouldn't do anything or say anything; I just felt elated, from someplace way deep down. An ancient happiness based on an ancient love for this man. Whatever you did as his mother, and whatever you didn't do, it all worked out so beautifully. I am grateful for all of it. Thank you for meeting his father Claes and conceiving a child together. Thank you for carrying him in your womb, and birthing him out into the breathing world. Thank you for following your heart onto the theater stage, bringing him with you, breastfeeding him, holding him, cooking for him, singing to him, letting him crawl on your back at the beach. Your son is a jewel beyond words. Thank you for bringing him into this world. Love, Me
