Dear Hannah,

I was disappointed on Friday night with your behaviour. This is hard for me to tell you and hard for you to hear I know. I am grateful that we are able to talk about things when they are not going well but I can't really tell how much you are understanding and how much you believe that I love you enough to place limits on your activities...As you face choices you need to always remember that short term fun often does not equal long term peace. We will often do something, not even thinking of what could happen...because at the moment it doesn't seem like such a big deal...if there is a twinge in your heart, a murmering in your spirit...please listen to it! Trust the wise cousel of those around you with experience and love. Be caution when chosing to participate in sneakery or lies...even if you are just the bystander...honour truth!! I love you Miss Hannah and am grateful to be spending our thanksgiving together! love mom xoxoxox
