Well mom I don't have to tell you here how much I miss you or how heart wrenching everyday is, I tell you several times everyday and I'm sorry for dumping on you but then again you never minded that. What I want to tell you is how our little Eleanor is so much like you not only with the crooked smile and the inside mouth bitting but she just says it and walks away. For example, (and I can hear you laughing already) They spent the night hear New Year's Eve and while we all were getting our pj's on Eleanor asked me and I quote"Nona what happened to your boobies, they fell down". It must be the name. I'm sorry you are missing all this cause I miss you more than words can say.

I can hear her cracking up at that too. I am not sure if you remember, the first time she saw Andrew when he shaved his head about 4 years ago she screamed "what the hell happened to you?" and he said "I shaved my hair all off Nona" and she says "yeah, no shit, WHY?!" and then looks at me and says "you let him do this? it looks AWFUL!" and of course, a dramatic exaggerated roll of the eyes....it's definitely in the name. speaking of "in the name".. remember at my baby shower, when we told her what Eleanor's name was going to be and she and Aunt Louise went back and forth about your middle name being after her, haha! that was pretty hilarious too...again, there was disgusted rolling of the eyes- and you're right, she never minded getting "dumped on"- everyone did it, and obviously nothing has changed (see my post from today) <3 Victoria
