Born Sunday, April 22, 1979, 9:09AM, 7 lbs. 3 ozs., 22" tall,
Newton Memorial Hospital, Newton, New Jersey.
Before you could walk, you would crawl
to the bookcase, to look at the books.
By the time you were a half-pint, we'd invested
in hundreds of books - and stopped counting.
In Elementary School, you were tested, and it was
discovered that you had a genius level IQ. No surprise...

You were always the quiet one, the "Little Lady":
Complete with tea parties; dress-up sessions; and a make-believe best friend, Jane -
who would jump on your rocking horse and travel to Succasunna with you!
Focused and serious, you set high goals for yourself.
Rarely have you asked anyone for anything.
You're only request has been for a sister and a brother -
and in that order. We did the best we could...

And through it all, we watched as you slowly blossomed from a little girl
into a very beautiful, poised, and self-confident young lady.

Your dream was to head for college some day.
And, in spite of all the obstacles you've faced,
you've managed to obtain your Associates & Bachelor's Degrees!
Be proud: You have done very well for yourself, Princess!

Three years old and still in a car seat, I'd be
driving down the road singing this song to you.
Could've been my singing, but you'd always giggle!
"Every Breath You Take" by The Police
Every breath you take, every move you make,
Every bond you break, every step you take,
I'll be watching you...
Every single day, every word you say,
Every game you play, every night you stay,
I'll be watching you...
O can't you see, you belong to me?
How my poor heart aches, with every step you take.
Every move you make, every vow you break,
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake,
I'll be watching you...
Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace.
I dream at night; I can only see your face.
I look around, but it's you I can't replace.
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace.
I keep crying: Baby, baby, please...
O can't you see, you belong to me?
How my poor heart aches, with every breath you take.
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake,
Every move you make, every step you take,
I'll be watching you...
You are my first born... my Princess.
And I'm sorry that I haven't always lived up to your expectations of me.
But I do love you, with all of my heart and my soul.
And I'm still watching, Chrissy... I always will be.
Love always,
Mom
