Dear Charlotte,
I knew your mom through the new moms' support group, as my son Jack is about your age. And let me tell you, your mom was a hilarious person. On September 6, here's what she had to say about you:

So many happy, ridiculous, 'remember whens'... things that you had to be there to truly appreciate. I am so glad that we shared so much. You will be missed, but always close in my heart.
A white dove flew by my window today,
She lifted a soul, gently up and away,
A white dove flew by my window today,
"Sweet angel, I've got you", I heard her say.
