Dear Joseph and Lucia,

I’m afraid I don’t have much to say today. It’s been a few bad days recently.  I’m hoping everything will balance out shortly.  In the mean time, I’ll just keep my head down and keep plugging away at work.  As long as I’m making my child support payments and keep you guys current, I’m doing the best I’m allowed as your father.

If by some chance your mother is attempting to stop these posts via legal means, I’ll continue to write to you.  I’ll just need to find a new way for you to read them.  Now that I’ve started, the day would be empty if I didn’t at least say hello.

As always, I’m here waiting.  If you want to leave me a message, you can always reach me at markus.randel@live.com or just leave a comment on any of these letters. I’m eager to see what kind of young adults you guys have grown into.

Love,
Dad
