Dear Simba,
‘How do I love Thee? Let me count...’ oh never mind! Gosh I miss you both! How is Tiger doing? Being a
turkey? Ten whole days! I’ll never make it!

Dear Numba,
You don’t know how strong you are, Sweetheart, or the beastly weather you’re missing here! I couldn’t
even get the grocery store to deliver! I’m having to gnaw on Troy’s month old gum drops that he didn’t eat
at the movie!
Sweetie, I don’t want to discourage you or anything, because you know how proud I am of what you’re doing,
but I am so looking forward to meeting you in Philly on Thursday! I miss you so much and Troy’s beginning to ask me
if he can have a new mommy instead of a new baby brother. Stay strong, dear one!
