Watching "Curb Your Enthusiasm" at the breakfast table. The episode takes place at a funeral for Larry's wife's aunt, where they discover that no one has written an obituary. Naturally, it falls to Larry and they decide on 'beloved wife and mother'.
I turn to John and say, "Now THERE'S a phrase I DON'T want in my obituary. 'Beloved wife and mother'!!"
Ben asks, "Why?"
I say, "Beloved wife and mother? Is that what you think of when you think of me? Beloved wife and mother??"
Ben pauses for a moment, and then quietly says, "Awesome wife and mother..." And then, after another moment... "Or epic."
And there you go.
The continuing adventures of a mom and son rediscovering each other in the absence of the oldest...
