Nonno loved Julia very much and always said she reminded him of my Mother....which made him love her even more because she was just like my Mom; a funny, sweet little girl, and yet, what an attitude.  He used to say, it's like a little piece of my Mother went into her when my Mom passed.  He used to tell me that I was going to have my work cut out for me with Julia.  And, I sure do.  She is such a spitfire; my Mom and me rolled up into one.
