A mother's love

Leandro! Can I just say that your mom and I may have had some differences between us but that doesn't mean we are competing for your love nor does it mean that we love you more than the other. I will be honest, I just didn't like the fact that she didn't grant me time with you.

But aside from that, I am glad that she is taking care of you. She has nurtured you and has stood by your side more than a mother should. She loves you so much just the same as I do. She has raised you well but I want to also raise you just like how she does. I'm just happy that you are in safe hands. I thank the Lord that you are being taken cared of, also I hope she will keep allowing me my God given right to see and be with you.

I love you, son.

Tried, trying and will keep on trying.

As you know, I'm not with you. I'm not there when you wake up in the morning and not there to kiss you at night. Its because your mom and I were separated. However, even if we weren't together I still tried to see you and your mom still allowed me. I would give anything to tuck you in and kiss you goodnight but then I have to settle with just those couple of hours with you.

Everything was going okay, I've accepted the fact that I have to settle for that just to be able to spend time with you. Until your mom had a boyfriend and then all of a sudden I couldn't see you anymore.

She wouldn't reply to me. She wouldn't allow me to see you! I know your mother loves you but to me she is just selfish! She wouldn't allow me to be with my boy! I kept trying to see you even if the hours kept getting shorter and the days kept getting fewer and fewer.

There were instances when she said I could see you and then at the last minute she would cancel. Son, I tried everything in my power to see you. I am not badmouthing your mother but I just want you to know that I've tried to move mountains just to have you in my arms. But I will not stop. Never will I stop for as God as my witness I will fight for what is mine.

I love you Leandro.
