Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2002 / 1:25 p.m. ~My Baby~ I just got a card in the mail from Hermione. Enclosed is a recent picture of little Lilly, my best girl, my baby. I want to look at it all day and just be happy. Four years ago she was born. Four years ago I was pining for Terrence, I was being shuffled around in my relatively new job, and Hermione had her labor induced. Her plans for a home birth were foiled and she was so mad. She had a Ceasarian, in hospital, and I saw her the next day, held little Lilly, a hot bundle of baby. I called her by her real name, her birthname, just learning to pronounce it correctly, not wanting to forget it. I wanted to take her home with me. She's the best baby, but now she's being influenced by so many external factors, I wouldn't even know her, not anymore. But I want to laugh when she calls me "Abigail" again. I want to watch videos and giggle and play with her toys. Her birthday is Saturday and I'll miss it. She's out West now. I sent her a card just now, just mailed it, just came home and found one from Hermione, with photo. I sent photos too, from her birthday last year, and I hope she looks at them and remembers me. My girl. My little baby, Lilly. Cost of the War in Iraq
