Letter to Christina (June 23, 2019)

Dear Christina,

     Love this photo. You and Tory. He was your puppy, and you babied him as much as you could! And you loved taking rides around in the Gator. So happy and carefree. It makes me weep, to think of all the cruel pain you were forced to endure. Without your mom. Without your dad. Without your extended family. Carried out by the pastors of Calvary Temple to separate you from what you had known. Leaving you vulnerable and afraid. At the mercy of whatever lies you heard. How hard it will be to learn the actual truth. But no matter what, daughter, be brave. And never be afraid.

I love you always and forever.
Your mom
