Deborah Fochler, August 25, 2007 (view all comments by Deborah Fochler)
A collection of writings and essays by famous and not so famous people on their mothers. From Diane Sawyer, Daisy Fuentes and the most heart tugging of all - little Mattie Stepanek who died at a young age. I can only imagine his mothers thoughts as she reads his loving and oh so grown up understanding of his mothers love for him and others. A rare and very special collection of "love" stories. The very special love of mother and child that endures no matter what.
