The Rattles gone out the pram

Phil — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 07:17:39 +0000

Hi Katey & Valerie,
I hope you are both well and happy. It looks like your mum has thrown her rattle out of the pram again, because I didn’t want to come to live with you. I put my reasons in a long email to her, but the basics are your mother’s honesty & sincerity, she is still playing games and seems to enjoy this, she is also financially beholden to grandma and always will be and there is a good chance if I came to live with you then all the financial support would stop and I cannot put your security in jeopardy. I do miss you both very much, this is something I have to live with every day, it would have been easy for me to just come to America to be with you, but at what cost. I do think its better this way. Maybe one day if I have enough money I can get a place in Woodstock and be close to you, until that day this is how its going to be, me in the UK and you in America. I had the best time with you two over Chrismas, it was so nice and I’m looking forward to seeing you again.
Lots of love

The cat & the pigeons

Oh well that’s done it, I told susan that I couldn’t accept her invitation for xmas day, she was not pleased at all, accusing me of putting your mum in an awkward situation, but I did tell her that mum could take you to the party if she wanted to, but she doesn’t want to go either. Lets hope our Christmas is bright.

Woodstock Worry

Hi girls,
Been here for three days now and it’s lovely seeing you all. It’s great to read you stories and put you to sleep at night. I’m really not happy about going to see susan & Jerry on Xmas day, I want to spend it with my immediate family, just you girls, mummy & Charlotte. I think it may upset the apple cart but I have to say something as I want to be happy on Christmas day.

Love You both

One week later

Phil — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 12:15:59 +0000

It’s been a week since you went back to America. I’m missing you all a lot.
It’s nice that your mum & I are talking again, she says that she loves me and is missing me, what goes through her mind I still don’t understand, it’s like she has chosen to forget about all the grief & pain that she put me through, Its been a tough 30 months, so we really need to talk.
Loving & missing you

Here & gone

Phil — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 12:08:21 +0000

Well that was fantastic, 10 days with my kids & a loving mum, what a turn up. I didn’t expect mum to be so happy to be with me again. It’s taken me by surprise that she suddenly has feelings for me again, after all, she was quite happy with Tom in her life when I came to Woodstock in May 2008. How strange she is.

Maybe she has had a real change of heart, I don’t know, but I do know I still love her. I will not be blind this time & we need to talk about a lot of stuff.

here’s hoping

Dadxx
