Mother Nature Welcomes Thor

Mother Nature has been a fixture of our family mythos since our
son Will used to watch the BBC cartoon program Super-Ted, with
its improbable cast of characters too strange to mention.
Mother Nature became an amorphous, generic force for good in our
family, like a cosmic granny.

Thor was our beloved family dog who, as all children know, went
to doggie heaven when he passed away.  It has been a decade
since he left us, but he is still fondly in our thoughts.
