I'd like to say I wasted the last 5 years but it's easier to think of it as a learning experience. The magical thing that came out of it was Violet. I honestly don't know what I would do without her. I know -we- will do everything possible for her as parents but I won't be able to provide an example of what a real relationship should be, not with you. I know I screwed up in the beginning but I chose to better myself while you built up resentment.

And at 29 years of age with a little human that shares my DNA

I start a new chapter in my life. ^.^
