I am Alex Marrow, Ellens 2nd son and one of my favorite memories, believe it or not comes from when I was just a baby; maybe about 1 year of age. We were outback enjoying a beautiful California day poolside at our Redwood City house on Eden Bower Lane. I was in front of my mom who was lounging on a sunchair and I started crawling towards the shallow ends edge; I think attracted to the shiny reflection off the pretty blue water. So before I know it I'm looking up at the sun from under the pools water and I know my mom had to jump up from her chair, spill her lemonade and then I saw her magical face full of love as she pulled me out and saved me from drowning. Once again safe in mommy's lap and laying my head on my heroes chest feeling the soothing rhythm of her heartbeat....I love you and miss your love every second of every day, thanks for being my mom and I'll never forget our special connection! Love you always, your mid-kid Alexander James Marrow.
