Mother's Day Jazz

All Those Unique Little Things and The Way She Put Us First collect the daily evidence of care, while Now It All Makes Sense captures the adult realization that childhood rarely understands the labor surrounding it. The One I Tell Everything To brings the relationship into the present, where a mother may remain confidante as well as parent. Messages from daughter, son, husband, and dog keep the ten songs from sounding like one repeated greeting. Each perspective changes what gratitude means and gives families several ways to enter the album. It can function as a gift, but its best quality is the invitation to notice specific acts of love before the holiday is over.
