I like the way you let us discover your mother gradually, as you did. What an amazing moment it must have been to talk with her friend/associate. I’m intrigued and heartened to explore my own family more.

Will we see the tree your mother made for you? Oh I hope so! So much covered in such a little space. I so admire your ability to do that!

Very beautiful! I can imagine you as a young girl with all your curiosity, fear of upsetting your mother and intense love for her!
