Dear Reese,
I wish you a future with collaborative storytelling with friends. Of taking your time to tell or be a part of fantastic stories. I wish you friends who will follow you down the rabbit holes of your interest, no matter what they may be.
I play D&D after you go to bed, after we already have a very good day together. A day of trying the new bakery uptown, of walking around the art fair in Sturgeon Bay, of hanging out in the grass in the sun because it’s finally warm enough to do that once the day has warmed up in the afternoon.
And then I get to lead an official Session One of a new D&D campaign, mostly prepped but with more bullet points and empty corners than I ever would have played with a couple of years ago (but my life and capacity looks different now, thank god, I love you so much). I have so much fun playing around in this new world with new player characters. It hypes me up rather than winds me down at the end of the day, but it fills my cup.
I wish you a future of a cup overflowing with connection and laughter.
Love,
Mama
