and for Claire ... her favorite song to the Blessed Mother ....
I make an observation here ... with many "grand moms" today ... their grown children blown them off and teach their children on some level to do the seem ... there is a real crisis of true family values in the generation behind me ... they seem to have an unresolved inner anger against their parents and especially their mothers ... I find this most in the grown children who are successful in life ... and it does not matter if that grown child was raised in a single parent home or a 2 parent home ... there is just resentment there and an isolation ... They do not realize their own children will do the same to them one day or worse ... just sad ...
