With arms wide open
Under the sunlight
Welcome to this place
I’ll show you everything
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I’ll show you love
I’ll show you everything . . .
Creed (American rock band) “lead singer Scott Stapp wrote this song after finding out he was going to be a father” (Songfacts).
This may be an ideal song for Father’s Day, but I think these words apply to mothers, too. The song brings back memories of all the wonderful things I was going to show my kids after they were born. Happy Mother’s Day!
I am a multi-genre author of literary fiction, fantasy, and paranormal, and writer of non-fiction articles on parenting, writing, education, health, and travel. My background encompasses both the sciences and the arts. I teach at a specialized clinic for learning disorders and mentor young authors. In addition to writing and teaching, my passions are weather, Indian food, gardening, and music. I have played eight musical instruments and spent many years immersed in taekwondo and karate. In my youth, I was an avid canoeist. I was born in Prague, Czech Republic, grew up in the Great Lakes region of Ontario, Canada, and moved to Alberta in 1988, where I raised four children.
Happy Mothers Day!
