Dear Amelia,

My heart is breaking with worry about the world you will live in when you are grown. It seems like we are tipping (have tipped) into such dangerous and challenging times, and so little separates us from big pain and fear. I am doing my best to work with farms so that, in our region, producers can continue to grow food and heat, and that we have clean water. I hope it comes to something. I am sorry if it does not.

My commitment to you is that I will teach you how to grow your own food, so you will not be hungry. I will help you learn how to make things with your hands. I will show you how to invest in your community, so that when things are hard the community will catch you.

I love you always.
