My Dearest Mom,

I guess I should be ashamed of myself, but I did forget Mother's Day, until the priest announced at church this morning that next Sunday is Mother's Day. They don't have such a thing over here.

I am going to try my darndest to go to communion for you next Sunday.

I could write lots of mushy stuff, but you know all that. All I want to do is give you all my love, to the best Mom in all the world.

Your loving Son,
Al

Albert Casper Cassidy
