Legends

Dear Amelia -
Yesterday, 2 legends past away. First, in the morning was Farrah Fawcett. She was a 70's icon. She had cancer and was expected to pass. In the afternoon after I picked you up from Kiki's, Glamma called  and said "Did you hear Michael Jackson died?" You were sound asleep in the back seat. Once we got home,  I made you a bottle and we watched CNN for awhile. I talked to Molly and we both agreed that Michael Jackson will be to our kids like Elvis was for us. A major icon (Lydia's fav) that we never had the experience of knowing first hand. Michael Jackson was a HUGE deal in the 80's when Daddy and Mommy were growing up. He had some legal troubles in the early 2000's but none the less, he was and will be a legend. I wanted to make sure to share this with you because this is one of the biggest news story death's of my life time (maybe tied with Princess Diana's death.) He was 50 years old.

Anyway, you had a great day with Grandma Kiki and Great Grandma Gigi yesterday. You visited Bumpa in the hospital. It sounds like you really cheered up the whole floor while you were there. Kiki said they play "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" everytime a baby is born at Fairview, isn't that a fun fact? So you were in the hospital when a life was brought into the world! Cool!

Today you are hanging out with Martha in the morning and then Glamma is going to swing by and pick you up for the afternoon.

We have a busy weekend! Tomorrow, we are going to start by going to Ashley's graduation party, then on to Shannon's grad party and we'll finish the night at Jason's 30th birthday party! Thats a long day for a baby, you'll do great! 

Love, 
Mom
