We cant understand when were pregnant, or when our siblings are expecting, how profound it is to have a shared history with a younger generation: blood, genes, humor. It means we were actually here, on Earth, for a time – like the Egyptians with their pyramids, only with children. – Anne Lamott

I have loved them my entire life, even after their passing. – Anne Lamott
