Dear Katie,

Happy Birthday to Luna.

I hope you’re doing great. All is well here. Caleb is now three years old and I’m watching him grow right before my eyes.

Before I tell you about work and such, I want to tell you a story.

I was on a plane to Philadelphia last month when I swore I saw Luna. I know it sounds impossible, too coincidental like I made it up, but I think I did. There was this little girl about seven years old, begging her mom for candy at the newsstand. She had your color hair that curled under her chin and on her forehead above her green eyes. She stood there with her hands on her hips (like you did that day you stood up to Principal Proctor), and demanded the Sour Patch Kids she held in her little fist. The mother was blond, pretty, and had two little boys in a double stroller. She leaned over and said. “Emily, you may not have any more candy today. You will throw up.”

I wanted to grab that lady and ask questions, take a picture—anything, but instead I just stood there like the damn Vulcan statue made of iron. I couldn’t move at all. This Emily pursed out her lips and blew air up into her bangs—just like you do when you’re thinking—and put the Sour Patch package back on the shelf and stalked off with her hands never leaving her hips.

The weird thing is that I bought that bag of candy.

Now I know it probably wasn’t our Luna. That would be too perfect. I get it. But in case it was, I bought that stupid bag and have it hidden in my desk drawer.

Have you ever thought you saw her? You know—in a crowd or anywhere at all?
