Quotation
"I felt the kisses as they came down my mother's neck and onto her chest, like the small, light feet of mice, and like the flower petals falling that they were. Ruinous and marvelous all at once. They were whispers calling her away from me and from her family and from her grief. She followed with her body" (Sebold).

Reaction
When reading this quote i thought of Mothers out there just like her. There are women out there just like her who loose themselves after something big impact their life. I'm not saying she is doing right because its wrong but I mean shes lost. She is with the guy who is investigating her daughters death when she should be worrying of her husband. Ever since what happened to her daughter she seems to have forgotten her family. I honestly feel bad for her because what she is doing is unexplainable. Although at the same time its not easy for a mother to know her daughter will be gone forever, and they couldn't even say goodbye.
