Dear Capris that I have been unable to wear for the past two summers,

It was so amazing to be able to pull you out of my closet and pair you with my favorite tee shirt today! I have missed you so much!

The last time we were together, I had to lie horizontally to get you buttoned. Neither of us were comfortable, and I realized, that I had outgrown you. :o( So sadly, I let you go. And I'll confess--I've taken up company with other pairs of capris out of sheer necessity, but none has meant to me what you do.

And I just want you to know that it has all been worth it. The 5:45 am bike rides in the dark and power walks...the evening running regimen...the lack of appetite due to stress and crazy work hours...the saying no to ice cream and cheesecake...the rediscovery of salad as a meal. It's all been worth it. Because we're together. Let's make it last a long, long time.

Love,

Me
