Dear Scarlet

Holy whoa! So, because we’ve gotten a ton of new followers in the last 12 hours, we decided to just say thank you and explain what we’re about a little bit. This is a project we started in 2009 after our own personal blogs were becoming completely overrun with letters to our daughter. With the intent of keeping them personal, we moved them over to dearscarlet. Our goal has never been to gain a following, let alone 20,000 of you, but just for her to look back on this as she grows. Eventually we got married and are now separated, but we continue to both coparent and run this blog together 50/50. Despite all the changes over the last year, she’s continued to be a constant source of joy in our world, and we are so happy to share that with you guys. We are overwhelmed with the support and kind words you’ve thrown our way. We don’t know how long this blog will remain public after she gets in school and learns to read, because we intend to respect her privacy if she wishes, but we are happy to spread her positive energy while we still have that opportunity.

Thanks again!
- Kait & Gabe
