Ode to my Mother

So my mom has gone and is now getting into the mind frame of mother-of-the-groom. I can think back to when she was coming...it was a little like Rachel on the Friends episode with the baby shower and she says "don't leave me" to her mom. I had no idea what to expect with a little one, but she taught me a few tricks of the trade and I can't say I'm a pro, but she definitely prepared me for what is to come. She made what could have been potentially sleepless nights a lot easier and helped give the love and attention Luke needs. She taught me so many things about making life with an infant easier by helping get him on a schedule that we can keep up on. She showed us how to burp him and helped us with treating his circumcision and keeping his umbilical cord pristine. I'm so grateful for her help and am going to miss her company.
