Well, you’ve put me through the emotional wringer and it’s only 7:16am! Honestly, Caro, from giggling over your hilarious recounting to the pinpricks of tears seeing the photo of Henry sharing his story at the end (and seeing the heron carafe itself!), you’ve made my day!🙏❤️

A not-so-small-miracle here in every way I can think of. It takes dig-deep patience and dexterity to shepherd your wild little flock and it’s so awesome and hilarious to witness.

Oh MY LORD what a superlative recounting of exquisite understanding of a small and only slightly peculiar human being and the hours and days of devotion to the reconstruction of its cherished “fancy potions bottle” masterfully illuminated by the artistically inspired photo demonstrating the very contents of love somehow bubbling forth from above its tracheostomized neck! Pure poetic prose presented pictorially! I remain awestricken!

Bare boned awe here at your mothering, Caroline! Colorfully keen and wise, a lens through which I want to keep chuckling and marveling and looking again and again - thank you for your art, your heart!!

I am vicariously emotionally exhausted and simultaneously awed by the precarious patience you possess.

Well, well done! You get mother- fixer of the month, Heck, maybe the year for this one!!! I am very impressed and you have made one human tornado very happy. Again, well done. ❤️
