I reckon it would be appropriate to post my daughters reply back to me to complete the circle of this chapter in my life. I guess I should reveal the matter of which I refereed to in my letter to her regarding Kori so that you will understand what she is referring to in her reply. A couple of months ago I got a phone call from her stating that Kori had punched her during an argument. This was followed by telling her the next day that the next time he would toss her down the stairs. This matter has resulted in some unfinished business between him and I. Her request is typical in situations like this and gives me reason to be more afraid then ever now, but do I respect her request to let it go or continue to think of this incident as unfinished business in my mind. Her reply is as follows:
I LOVE YOU, YOU ARE THE BEST DAD ANY GIRL COULD EVER WANT. WHEN I WAS LITTLE AND MY MOM SENT ME TO YOUR HOUSE I WAS SO UPSET I DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHY MY MOM WAS SENDING ME AWAY TO GO LIVE WITH A MAN THAT I DIDNT EVEN REALLY REMEMBER AT THE TIME BUT IT WAS THE BEST THING MOM MY EVER DID FOR ME TO SEND ME TO LIVE WITH YOU. I KNOW THAT I AM THE PARENT AND WOMEN I AM TODAY BECAUSE OF YOU. PEOPLE CANT UNDERSTAND WHY WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS IN MY LIFE I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOVE ANYONE ELSE, ITS BECAUSE I KNOW THAT YOU WILL TELL ME THE TRUTH NO MATER IF ITS NOT WHAT I WANT TO HEAR AND I KNOW THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR ME EVEN IF ITS JUST A PHONE CONVERSATION. THOSE PHONE CONVERSATIONS MEAN SO MUCH TO ME. I KNOW THAT AT ANYTIME YOU ARE JUST A PHONE CALL AWAY. THERE IS ONE THING I DO NEED TO ASK OF YOU AND I KNOW THAT THIS WILL BE HARD IS THAT YOU SAY NOTHING TO KORI WE HAVE MOVED PASS THAT AND BOTH OF US ARE TRYING TO CHANGE IN SOME WAY SO THAT WE CAN JUST LOVE EACH OTHER AND RASE OUR GIRLS. I KNOW THAT YOU ARE UPSET ABOUT WHAT HE DID TO ME AND AS A FATHER YOU WANT TO TEAR HIM A NEW ASS HOLE, BUT I HAVE FORGAVE HIM AND WE ARE JUST TRYING TO LEARN HOW TO FIGHT WITHOUT IT GOING TO FAR AND WE ARE DOING GOOD. I FEEL THAT IF YOU WHERE TO SAY SOMETHING TO HIM IT WOULD NOT ONLY MAKE IT UNCOMFERTABLE BETWEEN YOU TWO, BUT ALSO UPSET MY MARRAGE. I LOVE YOU DAD AND I KNOW THAT YOU ARE ONLY THINKING OF ME BUT I ASK YOU PLEASE DON'T SAY ANYTHING AND DONT HATE HIM BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH HE DID SO MUCH TO ME HE IS A REALLY GOOD HUSBAND. NOT MANY MEN WOULD OF STUCK NEXT TO ME LIKE HE HAS THROUGH EVERYTHING I HAVE TO GO THROUGH WITH THE TUMOR AND ALL THE MEDICAL PROUBLEMS I HAVE. PLUS HE IS A REALLY GOOD FATHER. HE STILL HAS SOME GROWING UP TO DO BUT SO DO I AND WE ARE GOING TO GROW AND LEARN TOGETHER. I LOVE YOU DAD MORE THAN ANYTHING!!!
