Dear Mom and Dad, I have been blessed with a privilege that many grown kids miss out on. I have gotten to know the two of you as an adult. I feel that it is a blessing because I want to not only be your child but I want to be your friend. I want ...

You know who you are and if you’re brave enough to read this, you can’t destroy me.  I know that you wanted to destroy me; watch me die slowly as my soul rotted from the inside out.  Sexual abuse is not about love or lust; it’s about power and control and causing pain.  I spent ...

Dear Mom and Dad, First of all, I want to apologize because I know this may be difficult to hear and understand. Second of all, I want you to know that I’m very grateful for all the support and love you’ve given me over the last three decades. I know that the 20 plus age ...

Dear Mom, I want to say that I’m proud of you for all that you’ve accomplished. It’s been one of my greatest pleasures getting to know you as an adult, and I hope that by reading this letter, I can impart some wisdom. I hope that I can normally tell you how proud I am ...

My beloved Angels, I have thought very hard about what I wanted to express as you three begin on the new school year 2018-2019 in a few weeks. Foremost, I wanted to say that, as your mother, I could not be prouder of the individuals each of you are becoming. Every one of you has ...
