Who We Are

Dear Stella,

I miss you! In fact missing you has to be the absolute hardest thing a Feather has ever done! Even the almighty armless Feather would struggle.

I know that break ups can be confusing- sometimes even for the grown ups involved. So I wanted to make sure you know how much I love you and miss you and that my not being around has nothing to do with you. YOU ARE DEFINITELY THE BEST B.F.F. ANYONE COULD EVER ASK FOR! I would not want you to be confused about that.

I am 30 and more years old, I have had lots of B.F.Fs and adventures and I know for CERTAIN that you are the best B.F.F. and adventurer out there! I’m sure your other little pip-squeak B.F.F.s already feel super lucky to have you around.

It’s just that, Sometimes when grown ups stop being in love its hard to figure out how to be friends and they often need a little time and space from each other. Plus Mama’s having adventures in Maine, your having adventures in New Hampshire and I’m having adventures in Rhode Island! That’s crazy!

Also it is definitely okay if you are upset with me for not being around. I always want you to feel free in expressing and working through your emotions, especially the ones that can be tough to feel. One good thing about having a very ancient (potential) grown up B.F.F. is that its my job to help you with feelings. Kids don’t have to worry about taking care of grown ups feelings, you’re still learning how they work!

Okay that was a lot of boring grown up stuff. I hope I can see you soon so you can catch me up on ACTUAL exciting kid things, like what is happening in the third grade?! Are the Secret Celtics still beating the Evil Nike Kicks?? And I’m afraid to even ask but…what mischief has Phenefolops been getting in to?? Oh and Mama told me you are learning to play the piano! That is so cool!

Lots of love to you, Pip-squawk. Hope you’re making TONS of mischief,

Feather
