I am going to visit you tonight. The photos are from a walk we took a month or so ago in the Mission. It is so scary to see the world through your eyes. I just want it to be unicorns and rainbows and race cars and playgrounds. There is so much I cannot protect you from, my nephew. Walking with you through my neighborhood, this truth became apparent.
I want you to know I think about you so much, and feel so blessed to be your Auntie B. You are a brave kid, sweet too. I hope as you get older, we can be friends, and that I am able to earn your trust and your heart. I will never lie to you, although you may not like the truth, as I know it. Regardless, I will always have your back and I will always love you as you unravel both the delicacies and the hurts of this world.
With all of my heart,
Auntie B
