Letters I Never Sent...

I leave at 5:47 PM exactly — racing to daycare before the $1-per-minute late fees kick in — and somehow I'm "not committed enough."

"You were never Plan B. You were always the dream"

"This is the letter that keeps me up at night. The one that makes me cry every time I imagine writing it for real. Because choosing to leave means choosing to share, and that's the part I can't control."

"I let go long ago; I just haven't stopped holding on to my child."

"You're falling in love with someone who still tucks in ghosts at night."

"You're off chasing your dreams now - busy building lives of your own. And I'm here, quiet house, quiet mornings, and a heart that is somehow both lighter...and heavier.
