  • Dear Future Daughter.

    Dear Future Daughter, This is something I never planned to do. A tiny but powerful incident forced me into writing this. Let me be honest with you – I’m caught up in a puddle of conflicting emotions. This is a letter that is targeted at making two people feel better. You, and of course, me.
