Writing these "letters" has helped me to process life as a new mother, remain thankful, and come awake to the little moments that make this pretty challenging season simply wonderful.

Day 158...Steps

I just keep thinking about how very far behind I am, now that the summer vacations have taken their toll.

It's so daunting I can't even think of things to write about like I used to.

But then I keep hearing...just keep going.  Don't give up.  Just take one letter at a time.  Don't think about all the other letters.

It makes it so much lighter of a problem when I think about that...one letter at a time.  One step at a time.

Kind of like life, isn't it?  If you think about the whole journey, a lifetime of this or that, it seems overwhelming.  Even stepping into motherhood, leaving "just the two of us" behind.  Or marriage, leaving the singlehood behind.  Whatever the case may be, one step at a time.  One letter.  One message.  One story.  One.  Two.  Three.

Dear Sadie.
