"I wrote a letter to mommy" is the understanding of the passing of a mother from her young daughter's eyes. Grief and Death are such alien and taboo-like concepts to children that it's hard to describe to kids, especially the passing of their loved ones. Sometimes, parents and guardians may resolve to simple white lies -- they've travelled to a place far away from here, or rather, "they've been to heaven". In this story, Ollivia, the little young girl, is writing letters to her mother, who has to stay with Mr. Bird Doctor.
