Big Mother is Watching.

My mother liked model ships and toy trains.  Today I took Belle to the sandbox with the Thomas train monkey bars.  What did Belle find in the sand near the train?  A very large toy ship.  I didn't think anything of it until I watched Belle inspect the train.  Her smiled reminded me, "Just like my mom."  That's when I remembered my mother's love of ships' and started crying.  I'd been waiting for something, anything, from her since Belle's birth.  I believe I have finally been reached by my mother from wherever she is on the astral plane.  She approves of Belle and of me.
