Dear Kimmy,
Hi there. It’s me, LDB, I’m writing to let you know that I’m ok. I had a little bit of a hard time with the shoe-flies in the back yard, and my worries about them, but I’m ok now. I just have some pretty big feeling sometimes. Those flies, they bother me, and when you’re not outside to eat them or sniff at them, then I get all concerned that they’re going to fly at me. Mama says to sing that song about shoo flies, but I just go straight to screaming about the bugs I’m unsure about.
Mama takes my hand and tells me to say things like, “I can do it, wave it away; or deep breath, let it out, let’s take care of it together!” Sometimes I’m not sure about a lot of things in life, and then at other times, I’m super certain about my place in life and I don’t feel worried about things outside and I just play. Feelings come and feelings go, that’s what we say at home, right Kimmy dog? Thanks for coming to check on me at the window and asking mama to come out and give me sniffs. I love you buddy dog.
Xo,
Leo
