And so you choose someone
who is most like you.

3:41:10
(mouths)
3:41:13
Someone that will give the kids
a taste of their real mom.

3:41:17
The mom they lost
and never really got to know.

3:41:21
In so many ways, we are so much alike.
3:41:27
That's why I chose Helen.
3:41:30
They're all yours.
3:41:33
Of course, she'll have lots of fights
with the kids,

3:41:36
yet she'll find a way to make up.
3:41:41
Welcome to the mamahood.
3:41:44
I know sometimes she messes things up
and makes big mistakes.

3:41:48
On the other hand,
she also makes big comebacks.

3:41:52
Respect her, Jenny. Give her a shot.
3:41:55
We're family, and I'm counting on you
to keep everyone together.

3:42:01
I know Helen
will certainly need some help

3:42:04
learning how to be a mother to my kids,
3:42:09
but I've got you for that,
3:42:11
and who could be better?
3:42:14
OK.
3:42:17
After all, you raised Helen.
3:42:21
You'll teach her how to be a mom. Just
like you taught her how to tie her shoes.

3:42:27
I can still hear you telling her:
3:42:30
"The bunny goes around the tree
and into the burrow."

3:42:38
Pull tight.
3:42:42
Yes!
3:42:43
(Henry) It's about time, Sarah.

‡ Before the cream sits out too long,
you must whip it

3:42:52
‡ Now whip it into shape
3:42:55
‡ Shape it up, get it straight
3:42:58
‡ Go forward, move ahead
