Very tender recounting of your parents attentiveness, intelligence and goodness. What I like about you including this on youtube is that it may provide pointers to parents, prospective parents, those who would like to help parents and those who need to work with children, what can they do to make their time with the children more meaningful, pleasurable, memorable, and how can they help in building essential coping skills.
What a wonderful image for the kind of mother so many wish they had had, but didn't. You truly are a lucky guy! Thanks so much for this wonderful story.
I did manage to record to my computer several hours of my step-mother's stories before she died. You inspire me to go and find those and put some of them up. Take care, Fred

A truer word has never been spoken! I like the story teller parent turning the kids into story tellers
