Mamma,
I hope this note finds you.
I remember the presents you wrapped with candy canes
attached. You’d never done that before. You curled ribbon around them as well,
using the sharp end of the knife to create a spiral. That was the first and
final time you’d ever take such care with presentation. You knew.
Dad’s okay. His misses you every day, but he has his birds
and his binoculars.
I don’t know what to tell you about Lucy without hurting your
heart, but we’ve made a start on getting her better.
Bec’s strong but she’s breaking. She has a good man by her
side, so in time we hope for everything you would want for her.
Your baby boy is doing good. His temper still gets the better
of him, if you were here you’d have words, God knows you’re the only one he’d
listen to.
I guess you know how I’ve been going. I will
improve, like I promised to.
Much love to you,
Your Lissy Lou xo.
