Three letters written on the same day.

Dick writes from Vietnam, thinking about his wife and a baby girl he has yet to meet.

Sarah writes twice — once in the early morning hours after a feeding, and again at night, exhausted and full of love — narrating newborn life in real time.

Together, these letters capture a family forming across distance: a father loving from afar, a mother loving at home, and a baby already at the center of everything.
