Izzy! Oh mercy, although you may not remember, I am your favorite uncle from Texas. Trenton and I went to Atlanta twice, of course, you were little and so was Trenton and now you are both grown. I immensely enjoy reading your journal and although you find it tough going now, once accomplished you will feel great satisfaction. I wish you the best of luck, please be safe and take lots of pictures and call your parents, as they love you very much, as do I.

I also have a nightly ritual of checking where you are and journaling about it and thinking about what’s ahead for you🥰.It helps to keep me from worrying too much.😍
