During the session, the therapist looked at the character and said, “You already know what you’re going to do. You’ve already made up your mind and you know what you’re going to… Continue reading

Dear Baby,
I know we just met, but I thought I’d go ahead and tell you that I love you. It’s funny, love isn’t always an easy thing. Sometimes it’s messy and hard and confusing, but when it comes to you it’s as simple as can be. I thought it would only be this easy when I… Continue reading
