For Those Settled Evenings

Mom, I was thinking about those evenings at home when you and Greg were cooking dinner and the house just felt comfortable, settled, safe, and sound.

I probably did not have words for it then. I just knew I could relax. Now I understand how much love it takes to make ordinary life feel that peaceful. You gave me a place where I could exhale, and that still matters to me as a grown man.

I hope today has some of that same comfort in it for you as you keep getting your steadiness back. I love you, Mom.
