MY SON

My son is wonderful and I love him dearly. But more often than not, he does not respond to my emails which of course disappoints me very much. And so last week, I thought maybe I should send him a message stating, “I sent you a couple emails over the past two weeks, to make arrangements to Skype so that I can see and talk to my granddaughter, Lily. But you have ignored me.”

I admit it would be a harsh and unpleasant email and I would not like someone sending such a message to me. Well luckily I never mailed it. Lo and behold, this morning my son sent me an email, “Hi Mom, I’ll try to Skype in the next few days. Sorry but I had the flu.”

I felt like a creep and I should know better. This is not the first time I think about admonishing him. But each time, before I take any action, he does something to reaffirm to me what a great son he is. Thank goodness, I’ve never acted on my impulses and in the future, I should always remember this important lesson.
