![]() ![]() Peanutbutter ♥ wrote a letter too but I don’t think he’s ready to share it. Tears welled in my eyes I was writing this letter and Ykaie told me it made her cry as well…. Most of all I reminded her that she can come to me with anything - anything at all - and no matter what and I will help her figure things out without judgement.His mother asked me to write him a letter, to be read during the weekend, and at first, I thought I had no idea what.

There may be longer ones written on her birthday card or a Christmas card…. ![]() I often write letters to Ykaie but it’s mostly just short messages written on a sticky note - most often stuck on her lunch box saying “have a nice day”, “good luck on your exam today”, or “i love you”.
