Tomorrow, I will see my mother. For the second time in the past five years, I will meet her at the airport, and bring her to my home away from home for an extended stay. Both occasions have been so unexpected – in the sense of reasonable likelihood – that I had difficulties in fully believing that she was coming to visit me. And yet, both times, she has crossed a good chunk of the world to share in my newest world, and to adventure alongside me. For this and for much else, I love my mom dearly.
