It has been, admittedly, difficult to watch you go through this trial with your family (though admittedly less difficult than actually being you going through it). I love you so much that my heart scarcely knows what to do with it all and I hate that life is full of so many situations that I can't magically resolve for you. I suppose this is just always a part of being in love.
I am glad to hear that I have ever been of some comfort to you in this (as I typically feel rather like a helpless spectator with little impact on the event itself). I know that while you are ever patient and loving I can be ever strict and often callous, but I am working on it and it's good to know I'm making some progress.
Your mother is an amazing woman. I know my attitude and comments can often be otherwise, but I am ever indebted to her for the gift of you, and for whatever influence she may have had that allowed you to become the Lady I fell in love with. She is strong and able. She is intelligent and persistent. She is loving and faithful. She is my family.
.a boy
