Mother-in-Law

One thing I immediately noticed about Rosie is her hands. People's hands often show who they are and what they have done. Rosie's are cute little ones but you instantly see that they have handled a lot, cuddled a lot, patted a lot, taken care of a lot: her 8 kids among a lot of other things, more than one can certainly imagine. I believe her hands have not changed over the years, looking as young as Rosie looks, beautiful, gracious, wise hands. Maybe she has always taken care of them with moisturizing Neutrogena cream etc. But I believe that it rather comes from the way she has done things. I have witnessed Rosie's hands cooking, driving, playing piano, cleaning, writing, gardening, showing, holding...always with care, agility, precision and grace. Happy Mother's Day. Love, Xavier
