Letters to Imogen | April 2013

May 12, 2013  •  1 Comment

Dear Imogen,

This month I really enjoyed our car conversations. You said things like, " Sometimes...... Spiders cry....." or  " I know a fly could workout just the same as you do." Each statement would make me think...  I couldn't decide if you were just saying random things or if you had an important message.

This month you counted to 29 and then insisted the next number was 2010.  I tried to explain to you that I was 29 and I would be 30 next.  You said I was 29 and Mimi was 2010.

You have been telling me recently how happy you make Mimi and how much she misses you when you are not around. I wanted to take pictures of you and Mimi this month because I love watching the two of you play.  Since you were born, Mimi has changed so much.  We had a rough year at the beginning of 2010, but when you were born everything changed.  I saw Mimi smile for the first time in years.  Truly smile.  She all of the sudden had a whole new outlook on life.  She lost over 80 pounds just so she could keep up with you when you started walking.  Now she has more energy than anyone I know.  Seeing her happy and healthy is such a gift.

I know everyone always says this, but after you have your own baby, you find a new appreciation for your parents.  When you were born I needed Mimi more than I ever imagined I would.  I remember my own childhood and how she filled it with magic.  She made it all look so easy.  I feel so lucky that we have her today.  I hope you always know how you were heaven sent, and how you changed our lives into something wonderful.
