"Dear Jenny,
1:46:09
if you're reading this,
you know that I am gone,
1:46:13
and I asked Helen
to be the guardian for the kids."
1:46:17
And you're probably freaked about it.
1:46:21
Yes, it's a surprising choice,
1:46:24
considering that you are the most
incredible mother I've ever known.
1:46:32
If you find this letter odd, understand
that my always-be-prepared Paul
1:46:38
convinced me to write it now,
while our children are young.
1:46:54
You must know from experience
that when it comes to picking
1:46:57
somebody else to raise your kids,
1:47:00
no one seems right.
1:47:02
No one is you.
1:47:10
And so you choose someone
who is most like you.
1:47:16
Someone that will give the kids
a taste of their real mom.
1:47:21
The mom they lost
and never really got to know.
1:47:25
In so many ways, we are so much alike.
1:47:31
That's why I chose Helen.
1:47:34
They're all yours.
1:47:37
Of course, she'll have lots of fights
with the kids,
1:47:40
yet she'll find a way to make up.
1:47:45
Welcome to the mamahood.
1:47:48
I know sometimes she messes things up
and makes big mistakes.
1:47:52
On the other hand,
she also makes big comebacks.
1:47:56
Respect her, Jenny. Give her a shot.
1:47:59
We're family, and I'm counting on you
to keep everyone together.
