My parents live in NYC, and my mom and I have similar tastes in art, music, television, movies, theater, politics and above all else, books (as in, we prefer reading novels above pretty much all else). My favorite activity that we do together is go to book signings, something we used to do far more often but we still find time to do today–we just went to go see Toni Morrison at the 92nd St. Y (her Christmas gift to me).
This picture is from Mother’s Day last year, when we went to the Bronx Botanical Garden and lost the rest of our family when we were wandering in the Groundbreakers Poetry Walk, which features poetry by Edna St. Vincent Millay, one of our favorites, who wrote a poem about her own mother called “ The Courage That My Mother Had .” If you haven’t read it, I suggest you do now–and show it to your mom. — Caroline Linton, News Editor, amNY.com
