My boys
They wouldn't remember me… I don't expect them to…
They were taken from me at such a young age, I doubt they even know who their birth mother is. All falls quiet in the mushroom kingdom today, it is often like this under the guidance of the two apples of my time-worn eyes…my two sons, the heroes of the Mushroom Kingdom.
My oldest, Mario… I knew he was destined to be great, from the moment then handed him to me. A screaming infant, the red blanket would always calm him down. To this day his favorite color is red, I see him all the time, and he always wears a red shirt under his overalls. He keeps the shirt nice and spot-free, just as I had always liked. And that jump of his, ah, such power. It seems as if he could soar right into the sky… my pride and joy, my little Mario.
My younger son, Luigi… ahh Luigi, my little tender-heart. As a boy, he would always want to avoid a fight. The other children would constantly pick on him, and he would run to his mother in frustration. Even now, when he fights alongside Mario, my heart sorrows for him, when I know it is not in his nature to fight. Luigi always wanted to be different. To avoid his brother's looming shadow, He chose Green as his favorite color. He would always say it was because "Green is the color of the grass, and the trees." And he always did love being enveloped in the beauty of nature…Luigi my son, you touch my heart in ways that even your brother cannot...
It has been both a joy and a curse to watch my two boys. I have watched them grow as heroes, and also they have grown as brothers, Learning to help one another through the toughest of times… I dare not reveal myself to them now, for it has been to long. I shall watch them from afar, and when I pass into the golden kingdom in the sky, I shall do so silently, and they will live out the remainder of their lives never knowing their mother's name. We shall meet again one day in that shining palace, and we will reunite…
But until that time, Know that I am always guiding you …and I give you all my love in years to come. I am so proud of you…my two heroes, my shining sons.
