Day Four of #beyourownvalentine2019 - Letter. Mr. Big the Bear and I are here to tell you that your challenge is to not just write any letter - but a love letter. To yourself. It can be to yourself as a whole, it can be to a specific body part that you don’t particularly care for but want to start trying to love, it can be to a body part that you already love and want to love even more. Whatever a love letter to yourself means, write it. Here’s mine.

Dear Natasha’s Tummy,
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know we have had a love/hate relationship pretty much our entire lives, but let’s try and make it a love/love relationship. I love that you’re soft and squishy, enough so that you are my husband’s favorite pillow. You may be riddled in scars and stretch marks, but that’s what makes you you. No one else has marks identical to yours. I love that your belly button is identical to my dad’s, so deep you can stick like half a finger in there. We are a carbon copy of our father for sure. I know sometimes I say I hate you. That I hate how you have loose skin and you won’t go away no matter what I do. But that skin is a symbol of what we have accomplished together, and I’m working on loving it. My favorite thing is how strong you are - although it might not look like it, the core strength and abdominal muscles underneath that layer of goodness is strong af and helps us so headstands all day every day.

So thank you. Thank you for being there even though I sometimes say I wish you were gone. Maybe one day you will be, or at least a little smaller, but know that I love you (or at least try to) at any size.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Love,
Natasha
