Dear Ruby,
Hey sweetie! I hope you’re doing well. Is school going good, I wonder? There was some tornados down here in the county I’m located in last night, but it didn’t affect us.
I had court today, basically they just continued another month. I did find out that your birth certificate, even though my name is on it, doesn’t prove I’m your dad. They said I gotta get a copy of a paper I signed when you were born. Even then they might make me take a DNA test to prove I’m your dad.
I realized today that this battle to get to see you again isn’t going to be a sprint, but a marathon. Fortunately, I got nothing else going on. Just be patient, Pie.
I love you and miss you.
And remember, God made you special and He loves you very much.
Love,
Daddy
