That's mothers for you.

Growing up, I never knew my mother.
She spooned me in bed, listening
to Dad’s boots pound down the hall.
In the morning, she played “grown-up”
with sis, spreading make-up
on her arms and cheeks.
I pretended I didn’t know why.

That's mothers for you. They mask their pain to keep their families happy. What a beautiful memory you shared.
