Dear Mom, I'm missing you so darn much today... even worse the closer and closer it gets to your youngest granddaughter being here. They say babies can hear in the womb, so I've been trying to 'teach' Norah her name, talking to her, reading to her, and singing to her... just a few more weeks to go yet--if she can even stay in that long... she's really trying to make her debut early like I did. I started singing her the "Norah" version of the "Pookie Pie" lullaby you wrote for me as a baby... and then customized for each of your grandchildren... I could almost hear you singing it with me... I remember as a child how soothing it was (even though you'd always make fun of your own voice)... and when you rocked Machaela to sleep with the very same lullaby... Aria too... I still have little video clips of those precious moments safely tucked away in my memories... I broke down. I couldn't even finish the song. I'm sorry. I miss you so much I can't stand it. Love always, "Pookie" --- Pookie Pie lullaby Little one, don't you cry Mommy loves Pookie Daddy does too Jenny does Trissy does Grammy and Nana do We all love Pookie, Pookie too. --- ...you made sure we never felt unloved.
