I found these today….

Hi Lesley,
How is my baby girl doing? I love you Lesley and I miss you very much. Cant wait to see you. I bet youve grown a lot. Have you decided on what you want for Christmas? Im sorry I havent sent your money for your good report card, but im in a position now that I dont have a lot of extra money, but ill make it up to you so dont give up ok? I promise I will! Are you helping your mom these days? I hope so. Youre old enough to help her do wht she needs you to help her with and know right from wrong and stay out of trouble. How is your boyfriend and you getting along now? Send me a list of what you want me to get you for Christmas. Ill let you go for now and write again soon, take good care of yourself and your mother. Shes the only mother youll ever have. Treat her with some respect, Les, she loves you and so do I.
I love you Lesley,
Daddy.

And Another..

Hi Baby,
How are you? Fine, I hope. Im doing ok. Just working a lot. Im sorry I didnt get to see you this summer, I bet youve really grown a lot. I love you Lesley and I really miss my baby girl a lot. I cant wait to see you again. Maybe at Christmas you can come down and stay a week, what do you think? My guitar got broke and I threw it away or else I would let you have it. Maybe ill get you one for Christmas. Do you really want to learn how to play one? I think it would be good for you. It would give you something to do when theres nothing else to do. If you really want one ill get you one. So what have you been doing? Tell me about school, whos your teacher, do you know anyone in your class. Take some time out of your busy schedule to write your dad, and write a little better. I know you can. Your last letter I could barely read. You can write better and I know that. Well I guess ill go for now. I will write again and I expect you to write me too.
I love you Lesley,
Dad.

Happy Fathers Day.
