Jessica - I don’t know what to say other than this is a brilliant read. Ashley just said to me - “did you know Jessica has a Substack?” Who? “Jessica Pencower - Jessica Reid.” I think I maybe subscribed but never got around to reading any- “She’s amazing - I just sent it to you - wasn’t she a lawyer?”
Yeah but I think I remember that he was a secret writer at the same time.
Boy were you ever. So now I get to meet my old friend all over again.
Oh yeah, our Shepard is 8. Ashley is his universe. I’m the jungle jim and IT guy.
This really resonated.
Sending love and hugs from a ridiculously far too long ago friend (and his wife)
Love the Crestwood pic!!!! And Booker just went through a tonsillectomy with adenoidectomy as well so I feel you!!! Glad you made it through and love the dream. I am missing those baby years and my cuddles all th way remembering at the time how much I needed space! Ah well motherhood is no joke and the biggest one of all! Hugs to you and the family! High school is a trip!

Yikes to Booker’s surgery! I still picture him as a toddler. Feels like yesterday and at the same time a million years ago. We miss you here in LA!
So touching!! I love this.
