Open Letter to My Children is a visual journal of time with my children and the ups and downs struggling with mental health as a mother.
"To my children,
I haven't been my best,
and I don't mean that in any wrongdoing way,
I mean it as in taking care of myself to take care of you.
The days have been long, yet the years feel so short.
So many tears spent,
So many moons passed,
and so much time I can never have again.
I have loved you since that first gasp of air from your lungs,
and every moment since.
It has not been the easiest for me to express,
but I am working on me to be the very best for you.
If there is ever a time you find yourself without me,
use this as your reminder.
Through my camera, I captured these moments with you.
I captured them in hopes that one day you will see how much you truly mean to me. The good, the sad, and all the moments in between.
I love you both so very much."
