Dear Children,
We had just about killed off the Great Barrier Reef when the people rose up and said that is enough. I hope it was in time for the planet.

Happy 34th birthday my son.

Dear Isaiah,
I am grateful for your soul, for your creativity, for your empathy. All these are precious treasures that you have to offer the world. They will help. I thank you for being in this world right now, so that you can offer these gifts at a time of transition.
Dear Jeremy,

My Mini & Lou,

to my dearest children,
Our future is being made now, and I promise to do everything in my power to make yours safe.
Dear my future child,
I promise you, I am going to do everything I can to save this planet for you. I won’t let you down, I swear.
