Some things are hard to say out loud.
To the dog who got you through it.
To the one sleeping at your feet right now.
To the one you're still not ready to talk about.
To the one you haven't met yet but already love.
Write them a letter. We'll take care of the rest.
Or type 'Louie' if you haven't met them yet.
How would you like to close your letter?
Love Mom/Dad. Your name. Or just an initial, if that feels right.
Write your love letter here. Try to stay under 250 words.
