* Please amend as needed.
I have come to the realisation ; somewhat reluctantly, that I am in fact turning into my Mother !
Has anyone else had a similar and terrifying conclusion !

Well, in many ways I hope not! ::)
But she had a casual elegance about her that I am happy to emulate. She had a favourite art-deco brooch that she always wore on her coat. I remember it from when I was a little kid. I now proudly wear that same brooch on my coat as a reminder of her good qualities. I like to think that she would have wanted me to have it had she known that she had a daughter. And I thank my brother who had kept it when she died, and who sent it to me when I came out to him.
