Hey, so this idea just popped into my head and I figured I'd write it whilst waiting for the bus... :)
So here goes..
Oh, and - as always - please review, favourite and follow if you like it.
(Plus please note that I'm up for taking requests - I'm probably going to do multiple letters)
DISCLAIMER: I own NOTHING
Dear Mom,
Do you remember when I was six and jumped into the deep-end of the swimming pool?
I didn't know how to swim, so I instantly started to sink. I remember that it seemed to take ages for me to hit the bottom, and that the deeper I sunk, the further away that everyone else - the whole word, really - seemed to get. It was like I was no loner part of it, just watching it disappear I went further and further down.
I also remember thatht before I touched the bottom, you reached me. You pulled me out, you got me back to the surface - back to the rest of the world - you saved me.
And that's exactly what Stef and Lena have done for Jude and I. They - along with the rest of their family - saved us. They stopped us from hitting the bottom by taking us in. They pulled us back to the surface by give us - particarly me, you know how well behaved Jude has always been - chance after chance. They held us tight, comforted us, made us feel safe - just like you always did.
I really love them, Mom, is that okay?
They make me feel lucky - something before I meant them I never thought I would be. They help me to forgive - for ages I was cross with you and Dad, but now I'm not. We all make mistakes, the only thing that differs are the consequences.
And, after all, if the accident hadn't happened then I wouldn't have met them, would I?
I think what I'm trying to say, is that they helped me to see that because of the accident I didn't lose a mother, instead I gained two.
I'm going to have to go now, Mom, it's getting late and I still have some homework to do.
I'll write to you again soon, I promise.
With all my love to the moon and back,
Callie
