In everyone's life, mother plays a crucial role. I understood my mother better when I became a mother! This poem is a tribute to my mother!
A mother's thoughts of a daughter flying free with music of her own.
Babies are wonderful. Yet, why some women are not blessed? Is it mandatory to prove her fertility or anything more? Celina must be right in her decision not to have a baby from Jason. Do you think so?
In this memoir, the author explores questions of race, adoption, and identity, not as the professor of cultural studies she became, but as the Black child of German settlers in Guatemala. Her journey into the mystery that shrouded her early years begins in the US when she realized it was not just her foreign accent that alienated her from Blacks. Under layers of privilege (private schools, international travel, the life of a fashion model and actress in Europe) she discovered that her most important story is one of disinheritance. The author’s determination to find out who her parents really were and why she was taken from them, tests the love of her White husband and their son, and returns her to Guatemala to find a family that kept her memory alive as legend. In the end, she learns truths about the women who were her mothers, and the disrespect committed long ago against a birthmother and her child in the name of love.

One mother's journey as she gives away her son.
Sometimes we are alone. Sad things happen. We are lost to those we love.
Nic and Jay C have been in love since they were teenagers but there's something in the way of them finally having the dream life they've always only talked about. Together, they come up with a plan that will change their lives, and effect the people around them forever. Will they end up together? Or will their plan unfold and back fire on them?
