Nipote Dearest,

   lm Sunday mass yesterday and it was Palm Sunday. That is a day that for many years I enjoyed to show your mother and aunt Stefie how to make baskets and crosses with palm leaves. It has been a few years now since I miss

having them and needless to say your Nonna keep reminding me that one day I have my grandkids to

show my tricks to. I always looked at that as a dream untill you made me start think of it as a reality.

Ohhhhh how I missed you yesterday during Mass. So many kids were dressed festive all around us.

When the kids were invited to bring to the altar the money offering and put it in a big basket , a lot of

kids went running to do it. That is when I saw you in a few years doing the same.

We will be together for Easter though, I cannot wait to see your parents since your addition.

We'll spend a couple of days upstate New York for the wedding of your cousin Georgia.

Georgia too is having a baby and is the only other this far of your generation in the family.

Time to go back to bed now dream od the day when Nonno &  Nonna will have you over for the

day and possibly for the nite to entertain you, love you, rock you to sleep and tell you stories.

Love

 Nonno&Nonna
