My Mother

About the Book

The author "Larry Winston" dedicated a book entitled "Yes Sir" to his father soon after his fathers passing. Larry promised his mother he`d write one honoring her as well. He asked her if she had a title in mind, without missing a beat his mother replied "My Mother", hence the title "My Mother". The book celebrates the life and times of Larry and his eight siblings mother. The book shares memories, both light hearted and heart wrenching of the daily struggles and triumphs of a wife and mother of eight. This is not a novel, nor is it a memoir, it`s simply a compilation of stories and feelings the author has for his very own angel on Earth, before she was ultimately blessed with her very own wings. Of course most people will shout from the roof tops, their mothers were saints, or angels, but in this authors sometimes devilish way, he makes a valid point.
