JANUARY

Dear Mia,

We made it to the Super Bowl! I get two tickets. One is for Dad, and one is yours, if you’d like it. I’ll send it to Vanover.

Love,

Ford

Dear Mia,

I’ve made a lot of progress in therapy, but right now, I'm struggling.

It's the 20th anniversary of my mom's passing.

Twenty years without her.

Something about this anniversary just feels different.

I'm sorry I had to miss your event, but I'm leaving for Cottonwood Falls. My brothers and dad and I are holding a special ceremony, just family, at my mom's gravesite to remember her.

It will be hard. But I'm showing up for the hard stuff. No excuses this year.

If you're a praying person, I could really use a prayer right now.

Love,

Ford
