Dear Stephie,

Tomorrow is your 10th birthday. Please decide what it is you would like for a gift. I have no idea. Would you like more books? More clothes? Please give us an idea so we can make it a special day for you. Please pick a few things!!!! Telling me a gallon of chocolate milk it not a good choice. I need something else to go on. We will make your special breakfast and take you out of school for lunch. We will also be going to PJ's so you can make a birthday pizza. We will finally get you a military Id card. Yes you can have a party with 10 friends on Sat. Please make sure mommy has lots of Percocet and sobe green tea so she can lock her self in her bedroom and let daddy deal with it all.

Love Your still miffed mommy

Dear Rv

Please stop breaking on us every time we use you. We want to use you more but get so frustrated at having to fix you every day we use you. Please stop.

Love your we don't go camping enough owner

Dear Liz,

Please pull yourself together. It is not the end of the world. Please be smart and very careful with your choices in the next few days. Please do not let yourself be manipulated into an unhealthy situation for you or the baby. You are so much better then all this drama. You deserve to be treated with respect and love not hate and anger. We are here supporting you and are being very careful to let you make your own choices in life. You are after all an adult. Please make smart choices and act like one.  Being called lazy, stupid, insane, and trying to take your child away from you is a sign of serious trouble in this relationship. Please run fast and far from it. You deserve someone who works, has a drivers license, is an honest and upstanding person in the community. Not someone who is very lazy and has no goals in life. You deserve someone who holds the car/store/house door open for you. Not slams it in your face. You deserve someone who helps with his child on a regular basis not just for show. Someone who will watch a child while you go to the bathroom for 2 minute. Not ignore him. You deserve someone who respects and loves you more then anything else in the world. Not someone who would rather buy cigarettes then buy his child formula. Someone who you know will be there for you when you need a shoulder to lean on. Someone who is willing to talk to you not yell like a madman.

Love Your very worried about you mother

Dear Mom
I miss you terribly. I have some serious issues in my life right now I need some help and guidance with. I swear I smelled your perfume in the car again today. Dave said I am dreaming it. Its not a constant thing so its weird when I do. I wish I was able to ask you for some parenting advice on how to deal with things. I wish I knew all that you did and what the heck I am doing most days. I always feel like I am making mistakes and doing the wrong thing or saying the wrong thing.

Love your lost lonely daughter
