Mother's Day Meltdown

Picture of the Day for 5/10/2015. I had my first-ever flaming Mother's Day meltdown. We were gathered at my sister Robynne's house and something set me off (long story- I won't go into it here) and I retreated into Robynne's office to cry. Sadly, I couldn't stop crying for two hours even though I really wanted to stop. It's a wretched holiday. I'm not a mother and never will be. It is one of the major disappointments of my life that I just have to compartmentalize and tuck away in a back corner of my mind. Robynne's office is filled with mother figurines and mother storyteller dolls and the irony of the fact that's where I retreated to escape the Mother's Day festivities did not escape me.
