hey julez!!

it's been too long! how have you been?

school here's been okay. i met a new person named charlie, and i think i'm really starting to like him :)

anyway, i heard that you'll be attending a new private school?!? wow!! i know this is probably very new and scary but it'll all be okay. starting something entirely new can be very uncomfortable, but it may help to think that you can only grow from that! trust me when i say that only the beginning will be weird, but you'll soon get used to everything.

i know it's been a tough year but you got through it, and that's what matters! you did it, and i'm so proud of you. truly. you overcame so many obstacles, you can only go up.

there's nothing that you can't handle.

i can't wait to see you again and give you the biggest hug! we definitely have to plan something. love you!

if you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask!! i'll always be a letter away :)

yours truly,

nick nelson
