If you find this letter odd, understand
that my always-be- prepared Paul
1:51:12
convinced me to write it now,
while our children are young.
1:51:28
You must know from experience
that when it comes to picking
1:51:31
somebody else to raise your kids,
1:51:34
no one seems right.
1:51:36
No one is you.
1:51:44
And so you choose someone
who is most like you.
1:51:51
Someone that will give the kids
a taste of their real mom.
1:51:56
The mom they lost
and never really got to know.
1:52:00
In so many ways, we are so much alike.
1:52:07
That's why I chose Helen.
1:52:09
They're all yours.
1:52:12
Of course, she'll have lots of fights
with the kids,
1:52:16
yet she'll find a way to make up.
1:52:21
Welcome to the mamahood.
1:52:24
I know sometimes she messes things up
and makes big mistakes.
1:52:28
On the other hand,
she also makes big comebacks.
1:52:32
Respect her, Jenny. Give her a shot.
1:52:35
We're family, and I'm counting on you
to keep everyone together.
1:52:42
I know Helen
will certainly need some help
1:52:45
learning how to be a mother to my kids,
1:52:50
but I've got you for that,
1:52:53
and who could be better?
1:52:56
OK.
1:52:58
After all, you raised Helen.
