•What Was The Best Part Of Your Day

I ask him if today was a good day and being a cheerful fellow he always says yes. After reviewing the highlights of the day -- all the elements that made it a good day -- I ask him which was the best part.

I was perfectly content with my day and the gift my son made for me himself but later that evening as I watched the news (actual several news shows at once as my husband controlled the remote) I listened to several interviews with mothers in various walks of life and I started to wonder what our world would be like if mothers, all mothers, were given more power to control the world.
