Aunt Lise

When I was pregnant with your mother, my mother (your great grandma Moon) changed. She
blossomed into this amazing woman full of more love, compassion, unselfishness, I could ever imagine. She was this way with all her grandchildren. I was very fortunate to live close to my parents when I had your mother. I never had to worry about a last minute sitter or someone to ask advise. Someone I knew loved your mother as much as I did.

My father (your great grandpa Moon) was awesome too. He never questioned my mother's behavior when it came to the grandchildren. He was a team player and appreciated his grandchildren just as much.

When I compare myself to my mother I feel I fall short in so many ways. I wish I could respond to all the times your mother needed someone to take care of you. I wish I could attend every school program you are in, or be able to pick you up from school. I wish I lived down the road from you and I could wander over (everyday).

Aunt Lise who will have a baby in February, wishes as I do you lived closer. For now we can hardly wait for you to visit your new cousin when he arrives.
