BRIAN EDLIN
Some people say things easy. Brian Edlin is not one of them, so he put it in a book.A Mother’s Love is a son’s thank-you to his mother, Gerri, built from eleven true memories of the days she showed up for him: the afternoon she took him to the movies and shared her popcorn; the phone call from a scared kid who could not get home, and the mother who came like Supergirl; the sunrise she spent searching for him; a bee sting; a hospital room and the long work of learning everything over again; her cherry cobbler, the one dish that always got through; and a seat beside her at his father’s memorial service, her hand holding his. Each memory is told in Brian’s own words, paired with a poem written for it and a short reflection - and every one ends the same way: Mom was there. The book closes with a blank page for a handwritten note, so the gift can be finished by hand.
