To My Children
Fiorella tried to be a good mother, but she wishes she'd been a better mother. Her only excuse is that sometimes she was tired, or angry, or depressed, or just plain stupid. Please forgive her, and learn from her mistakes

Haunted
This is one of those mornings when Fio's fiendish brain chooses to dredge up every stupid, idiotic thing she's ever done in her life--and there are plenty to choose from.
They date back to the time when she was three years old and grabbed the wrong woman's hand in a department store. Fio's has finally forgiven herself for that gaffe--mothers' hands all looked alike to her at that stage.
Then there are the ones when she was trying to help someone else, like the time a friend asked her to sing the high note at the end of the song with her, which Fio did--one measure too soon.
And when she was curious, like the time . . . . But she's not ready to own up to that one yet.
