I love your simple but endearing sentiments here. I like the parallel ideas of strands-follicles-deepness, suggesting that a mother's knowing is penetrating like roots.

So many images flood to mind with this piece. All of them loving and warm. "Strands of motherhood" is so interesting.

She always knows, and that is both the joy and the heartache.
