I was walloped by this Mother's Day story. In the Washington Post Magazine, Steve Hendrix writes about his mother, one of the first teachers in a new program in 1976 for gifted students. He says:
"I've often wondered what she meant to the handful of students who knew her in that school room. Wondered, but never asked."
In the article, he finally asks.
My heart has been walloped. That's a whole novel in an article - beautifully done.
