How to cut a lemon, how to bake, 2 day long fruit cake cookies, Mallow Cups, no-bake cookies ready when I came home from school, The Sound of Music, black lights, trips to Toys R Us- COUNTLESS TRIPS, driving in the rain going to pick up Popie and having her ask "Am I still inside the lines", beating ANY and EVERY car off the line at stoplights :), trips to Fairfax, giving me and Kristen the keys to Popie's car to drive up and down our driveway when we were 12 or 13 yrs old, and unconditional and unwavering LOVE and devotion. These are just a few things that my Nannie taught me or that will ALWAYS remind me of her! She loved all of her daughters, grandbabies, great grandbabies and my Popie more than ANYTHING... you could look at her and see that she would do anything for any of us and I only hope to be able to pass on her love and strength to Aiden and Airabella as they grow.
