Hey there Sweetheart

If I could talk with my daughter, I would tell her that I miss her so much, I just want her to know that I am always thinking about her and love her so very much. Each day that goes by brings me one day closer to getting out of this place, and putting my life back together so that someday I can be a part of her life again.

I know a lot of time has passed since we've been together and she's had to learn to live without me. I am so terribly sorry for that. So much time has passed since we've been together that it wouldn't surprise me if she found it difficult to remember very much of me at all. I'm terribly sorry for that. What keeps me going is my faith in the strong, loving foundataion of our relationship that was set during the years we were together. I pray that when she does try to think of me, that she does remember the feelings of how close we were and how much I love her.

I told her then that it was forever and I still mean that. She is always on my mind. She is my "Princess".

Once I am able, I will do everything I possibly can to rebuild what she and I once had. I keep faith, and I hope she does as well, that we can be that close again.

She won't have to be without her Dad for too much longer.

I hope she had a fun and enjoyable Freshman year! I hope it wasn't so bad. It only gets better from here, so I hope she enjoys her summer vacation and has a great next year!

I would tell her to "Keep up all the good work with your schoolwork, your sports, your music, and all else, honey. You're so wonderful, you make me so proud of you."

If I could, I would like to tell her: "Take Care Princess, please always know that I love you so very much, I'm always thinking of you, and we'll be in each other's life again someday soon."

I love her so much,
"Dad"
