First and foremost, Thanks to my Nemom for passing on to me her love of writing. For those of you wondering, "What's a Nemom?" Let me explain. A Nemom is a loving and very supportive Grandmother who was a talented writer of poems and stories. She shared her love of poems with me from a very early age and helped me to craft my own style when I was very young. Those of you that know me well know that story writing was not my first love. I wrote poems, like my Nemom, for many years. I was in awe of her talent and the special books she had kept over the years housing all her personal poems. Poems were her gift to those people that she loved. If you got a poem from Nemom, you were golden.

Thank you Nemom for sharing your talent with me and believing in me.

What is a Nemom?
A Nemom is a loving Grandmother that carried around the original "Nathan's Wish'' in her green vinyl purse day after day after day. Until the days turned into weeks and the weeks turned into years just in case she ran into someone she hadn't shown it to before.

I miss her very much ~ Cyndi
