Dear Mom,

I miss you.

And I think a reason that I am so annoyed by T's parents these days is because I am jealous that he still has parents and I don't.

K, however, would probably get on my nerves no matter what but if you were still here at least I could talk to you about it and get it out of my system. Without you it is just me dealing with her and that is difficult for me because I want "my" mom to be able to be here for this new baby.

You were such a good listener and so willing to visit us all of the time and not afraid to play with J or just sit around. I miss your strength and confidence when it came to dealing with kids. Because I knew you enjoyed being with my kid.

I just miss you.

Love,

Nicole
