"If words can express how much I love you, they are all here written with much love".
I write a love letter to Satchi and Coco almost every day on dedicated notebooks. Some day it's just a few words. Some other days, a whole letter filling the entire page in a notebook. I have been practicing this family ritual for more than five years and we now have a stack of notebooks that are dedicated to them. The other day, Coco asked me to see some of her old letters so we pulled all of our archives out and spread them out in our living room. Both girls sat on the floor and quietly flipped through the photos, notes, letters dedicated to them. It brought me a priceless joy to witness the scene. If you are thinking of starting a new analogue ritual for the new year and not sure where to start, how about starting to jot down your love letter to special someone on your pages? This special ritual dedicated to my girls has filled my cup as a mother over and over for many years...
