The universe has good news for the lost, lonely and heartsick.
The sugars are here speaking straight into your ears.
I'm Steve Almond.
I'm Cheryl strayed.
This is dear sugars.
Oh dear.
So won't you please share some little sweetness with me?
I check my bell rides every day oh, and the sugar you see in my way hi, Steve.
Hi Cheryl.
I love this letter and I love the person who wrote it.
Dear Sugars, I'm a 29 year old mother of five amazing souls.
I started my mom journey at 16.
When I found out I was pregnant.
I took myself out of high school and got my ged.
I started beauty school at 17 and finished at 18.
By 21, I'd moved out of my parents house, had another baby, gotten married and bought a house.
Life has been a beautiful chaos with my wonderful husband.
I stopped working at a salon before baby number five was born.
My plan was to go back to work once she started school in two years.
