Hi 10-1-14

Good morning Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you?

I hope all is good

I am ok

Missing you terribly as always 

I wish I could see you 

Soon

Maybe?

Thanks for the texts 

That's nice

Always good to have a text 

Looks like you have a Mac Book

That's cool

Love it 

Hope that you're getting on well with it 

I'd like one but just can't afford it

Not here

They are very expensive here 

I have the iPad Air and I love it 

Love it to bits ❤️❤️😍

How is school?

How is home?

Is mom ok?

I hope so

Aunt Sherry will be here in less than 2 weeks

That will be fun

She's here for 6 months

She'll likely be living with me

I am looking at a renovated barn to stay in today 

If it's ok I'll try to get it 

Since you have the Mac Book you'll get iMessage on the computer 

That's quite cool 

❤️❤️😍

How is Brian, Britney and Britanya 

How is Stephanie, Tammy and Benton.

Do you see them often?

I hope you do 

I hope that you enjoy yourself 

I miss you 

I miss seeing you, playing and having fun

I'm glad I have some memories left of us 

Of our times together building forts exploring the world going to the beach

I am truly sorry that I am not there with you helping you grow up and be the man and woman that you could be 

Tomorrow I will send the monthly package l will also send your birthday card and present 

Love always and forever 

Daddy xoxo 

Hi 9-30-14

Good morning

How are you

I hope you are both ok

Feels strange to be here and have to go to work in the dark

Wish that I could be there with you

Maybe soon

Hope you are ok

I saw some pictures from Ms Albarez's class on FaceBook

You all look great 

That's cool that she's posting some pictures of you guys doing math and more

It wasn't of you

Maybe next time?

I have found a nice place that I'd like to go see 

I hope to see it tomorrow

It's a little further away than I am now but it looks so nice on the Internet 

It's a converted barn / stables 

Old world and new world 

I hope it's lovely 

Aunt Sherry and I will live there 

I changed some money with grandma for your birthday present for you

She's sending you a little cash and then adding money into your bank account as well

That's cool

That's nice 

I'm sending you a present and some money 

Plus tonight I'll get the usual money for you and mom

I hope that I will have been paid 

It's all good

I miss you both so much 

I love you both with all my heart 

You are all that matter to me 

Love always and forever 

Daddy xoxo 

Hi 9-29-14

Good morning Sebastian & Kaitlin

How are you both?

I hope all is ok

I hope that you had a good weekend 

Mine was good

I was in Wales

I had a good time

I sent you lots of pictures 

I think I might have taken too many pix 

Lol

There was several sets 

But then I went to several places :-) 

Lol

In any case it was a good 3 days

I took Friday off as Sherry was supposed to come here 

She didn't she's in on the 10th now

Which is fine for me 

I'm not bothered 

She's started to try to make things different already 

Joy

She wants me to start proceedings to allow you to come visit 

I want that so much 

I just don't want to hurt you both by sending you back after a vacation to mom

That's going to hurt you 

I will discuss this with you and your mom soon though

Maybe you can come for Christmas or in the summer next year 

Hopefully I'll be back in America by the summer again 

But I'm not planning that in reality 

I think it will be 2016 that I return even with the help of Sherry

What did you do this weekend.

Where did you go

Was the pier this weekend with the friend of mom's

It's good that mom has a friend 

It's good that she's happy 

Always good that mom is happy ok

I miss you both really bad 

It's been a very long week 

I almost had a breakdown this week 

Things are getting out of control at the office 

And Sherry made life hard as well

But it's under control again 

And it's the start of a new week

Omg 

It's so dark here this morning wow

Pitch black

It's truly turning into winter again 

Yuck

But the weekend was warm (ish) and fun 

That's what matters right?

Going to/from work in the dark isn't a big deal

Due to the drive the car ate so many bugs I couldn't see out of the windshield 

So had to clean it 1/2 way yesterday 

Now I have some bugs left but not many 

Going to see grandma tonight 

She wants me to change some dollars for her 

Will do that no issue 

Think I'll also go to bed early as well

I did last night 

I was asleep at 1030 but up at 245

Did fall back asleep though 

So that's great news 

Lots of love 

Always and forever 

Daddy xoxo ❤️❤️😍😍😘😘💝

Hi 9-28-14

Good morning Sebastian & Kaitlin

How are you 

Hope all is well

Hope that you had a good Saturday 

What did you do

I was surprised that I never heard from you 

It's all good I know that you're having fun

❤️❤️😍

I am in Wales

I chose to have dinner with an old school friend last night 

So I was too late to return to London

Oh well

I found a hotel 

It's off the freeway considerably so that's cool

It is very nice

A best western 

It even has its own starbucks 

Which is great as I didn't get one yesterday 

Aunt Sherry posted a FaceBook thing to you

Do you still use FaceBook? 

I do

But I've pretty much locked it down now 

So no one except you guys can comment 

How is your weekend 

Mine is almost over 

I start to worry about work again today 

Oh well

That's life

In talking to my friend in Wales he's got a great job 

But he's bored 

That has to be worse than being constantly busy 

We'll see 

Tomorrow I return after a 3 day weekend 

It will be crazy 

And it will be insane 

it's just a job and just life 

Nikki's tenant is threatening to sue her 

That's not good

So he's not leaving next week 

That's a bad thing 

Shit 

Oh well,

Sherry will have to hang out at 28 until we can find a place again

No matter 

I'll need to start to look properly next week 

Darn it 

There goes a lot of money for rent and stuff 

That's a waste 

Nikki Had hoped that she'd get this guy out 

She's also hoped that I could stay there a while as she tried to sell

That's not happened 

This tenant is a pain in the ass

She'll need an attorney to do this now 

She should have done that to start 

But nope 

As with every in in the family too cheap 

Such is life 

I'm hoping that once Sherry is here she will stop being so ridiculous with her time keeping

Up at 2am still 

Ridiculous 

She's going to need to change that if she wants to be with me 

That's a 100% certainty 

I miss you 

I love you 

I wish I was there with you 

I wish I could hold you 

I just want to talk and be a good dad.

I know I am far far away and that we are in majorly different time zones It's hard work to be around when we need one another but I am always around for you now and forever no matter the circumstances in life 

Being away from you daily is harder and harder as the day progresses 

Soon we'll be together again 

Love 

Today, tomorrow and forever 

Daddy xoxo ❤️❤️😍😍😘😘💝💝

Hi 9-27-14

Hello Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you both?

I am ok

I am in Wales

I drove to see my friends grave and put flowers for him

But I couldn't find it

That's sad

I will try on the way back and see whether there are offices that I can contact 

If not another time

I left the flowers with an unmarked grave and in a general area near all the other graves 

What did you learn yesterday?

I hope that you had a good day

Is school fun

Are you both ok?

Did you like the video that I sent you

Did you like the video on FaceBook 

I have limited FaceBook to only pretty much you 

I'm sick of the trolling and people making nasty mean comments on there about me or inciting mean comments from others 

But that's life 

I don't need FaceBook at all

Except to get pictures of you guys 

I'm using the iPad Air this morning it's connected to the iPhone for signal 

That's pretty useful isn't it?

Lol

I love the iPad Air 

It's just the perfect size for the email that I send you every morning (my mornings)

Have you upgraded your iPad 

Did it upgrade 

The hotel I am in is like motel 6 but for Britain.

I'm on the ground floor and the people above are noisy 

It's all good 

That's life 

I'll be leaving soon

I'm going to go have a McDonald's and then walk it off at the beach 

I really do love the beach 

Afterward I might go see an old friend for lunch 

But then again I might not!! 

Lol

Lunch would tie me down to a specific time / area and that could work out badly for me 

As I really enjoy the walking 

Maybe I could meet for coffee with Andrew 

That would be good 😎

Wha are you doing today?

I know now your sleeping 

But later

I hope that you have a good day and some fun 

Love you always and forever 

Daddy xoxo

❤️😍😘😘😍❤️💝💝💋

Hi 9-26-14

Good morning Sebastian & Kaitlin

Today Aunt Sherry was supposed to come over 

She's not 

She got sick and that kinda killed that idea 

She'll be here on 10-10

That's a good date

Unfortunately it was an extra $350 to make the flight change

Darn it 

That's sucky 

Aunt Sherry made me very mad yesterday 

That's not good 

She made me chose between her and Fiona and Millie and Ben

I have chosen for now

But I am less than thrilled about it 

Very less than thrilled 

Quite exasperated with her 

The jealousy thing is bad 

Oh well

She will get over it and she will move forward 

Don't allow yourselves to become that way and second guess everyone 

It's a horrible way of life 

Be better 

Be free 

Believe in yourselves and God

In FaceBook i deleted most of my posts 

It was the best way forward as the crazies were out in force 

But now Sherry tells me that she can still see all the pictures 

Just great 

I hate FaceBook 

I shioukd never have had an account 

The only reason I do is the off-chance of a picture from you both 

How is school 

How are the teachers behaving?

I hope it's all ok

I hope that you are ok

I hope that you still enjoying going to school 

I always lived school 

I wish I could go back there 

One day maybe 

I should get a teacher credential 

Maybe be a teacher 

Perhaps I don't have the patience for that?

Lol

I miss you both so much 

I wish I could hold you and hug you

I wish I could take you places 

See things with you 

Have lunch with you 

Make you food 

Start our lives again 

That would be awesome 

I know it's a remote and far away dream 

But occasionally dreams do come true 

Right?

Being in England sure isn't a fairytale that's true

Love you

Today tomorrow and forever 

Dad xxx 😍😍❤️😘

 

Hi 9-25-14

Good morning 

How are you both?

I hope that you are both doing good

Thank you for your texts

Both the voice ones and the words

Love em

They are so good

So very happy to hear from you 

Did you get to upgrade the iPad to the new software as well?

I hope so

How is school

Are you doing well at your classes?

Are you having fun in school

If you have fun it is so much better 

I think I need to have more fun

As such I am asking for tomorrow Friday off

I think I will go for a drive

Sweet

Just found out from Sherry that the iPhone 6 isn't being sold in America without a contract

Bummer 

Oh well 

No new one for me for a while

It's just not worth it 

Maybe !!!

Lol

I will wait 

I can handle it 

Shame 

But that's life 

Lol

What are you doing after school these days 

Do you go to 2280 or 2272 or do you go to Aunt Tina's?

I hope you are happy with where you go and what you do after school

Yesterday after work I took a quick drive to a place called Worthing

I left a message in the sand for you 

I posted that on FaceBook as well

I love you guys 

Always have and always will 

I would imagine Aunt Sherry expects me to post that on the sand for her 

Too bad

She will wait 

She will have me to herself for 6 months in 2 weeks 

You won't 

Lots of love 

Always and forever 

Daddy 😍❤️😘😍❤️

Hi 9-24-14

Good morning Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you?

Glad that you updated your phone 

Cool you can now send texts and audio and video straight from the message bar

If you get one they auto delete in 2 minutes 

But there's a little "keep"'word next to it for a minute - that way you can save them

I found that out when you sent it last night Sebastian

:-)

Thank you

It was so good to hear your voice

That made me sleep so much better and had a good dream

I dreamt we were speeding down the freeway (the three of us) In an Escalade 

It was a good dream

;-)

How is school?

Are you doing well at school?

Are you both still liking school?

I hope all is going well

I will email,the teachers this week and make sure all is good for you 

Aunt Sherry postponed her trip by two weeks

She had to pay $350 to change the tickets 

So she's unhappy about that 

That means that when she gets here she'll start to moan about the money side of things 

Awesome :-( 

Oh well whatever

How is mom?

Is she ok

What's she doing these days 

Does she still work at the same place?

Does she still party with Shayla's mom?

I hope she is ok

I haven't spoken (text) to aunt Tina in a couple of days 

Last time I did she was good 

I miss you 

I love you 

I wish I were with you and could hold you

Always and forever 

Daddy xoxo 😍😍😎😘❤️

Hi 9-23-14

Good morning 

How are you both?

As I woke up this morning I got a text from you both 

That's cool

Glad that you text me and glad that you like the stuff that I sent

That's great

How are you?

Hope that school went well

Hope that you have a good nights sleep

It's cold her now at night so I was wrapped up and slept well

It's good that way!

That's the only time I appreciate the cold

At night 

When I'm under a cover 

Lol

What have you been learning in school 

Anything exciting?

I hope so

I hope that the teachers are good to you and make you want to learn

I hope you are enjoying school as well

I lived school

Nikki hated it

Oliver is just starting and he cries everyday that he goes there 

But he'll be ok

Oliver is Nikki's son

Annie (daughter) I think will start next year 

Not too sure

She'll likely cry more

Nikki colored her hair

Why?

It's the same as before

Odd

I don't color mine here

There's no point 

I just can't be bothered 

Plus the office people will make so much fun of me

Do you still want me to have a goatee?

I am quite used to it now

I quite like it

But who knows

Aunt Sherry was in hospital 

She's in Texas now

So that should be good

I think she's putting off the flight until 10-10

But will know more on Wednesday

So guess she's not put off the flight 

We'll see

I think she's acting like a child by not changing the flight 

But that is her choice

Everyone will be pissed off at her if she flys the day after she gets the stent out 

Women

Lol

How's mom?

Is she ok

I hope so

I did get a text from Aunt Tina.

She said all is well

She said Ma is good too

That's good

Ok off to work now

Love you 

Today,  tomorrow and forever

Daddy xoxo ❤️❤️😍😍😘

Hi 9-22-14

Hi Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you both?

I hope that  you have had a good Sunday and a good weekend

Mine was ok.

I did about 600 miles over the weekend 

Maybe more

That's quite a good drive

I liked it

The car has 150,000+ miles on it 

Awesome

Still happy to have her

She's doing well

Seems Lexus are good value over a long term plan!

😎😎

Aunt Sherry ended up in the hospital over night 

She had kidney stones 

And they wouldn't pass so she has had them lasered 

Hopefully she's ok to travel this week

If not then next week is good

Whatever 

She managed to get herself a new iPhone 6 before she went to hospital

That's cool

They look very nice

This weekend I will look at them and see whether they are worth trading up to

Unlikely 

But we'll see anyway 

For his birthday Ben bought a new 5c iPhone 

Like yours Sebastian

He's thrilled with it 

Hopefully he'll have a good use out of this one and not get it wet or whatnot

That's a good thing anyway 

It was good to see them all

They are always so friendly

I sent you the pictures that I took

That was cold up on the tower and windy 

But worth it 

Aunt Sherry was frustrated because she was unable to go with me 

She was jealous :-) .

Silly but true 

She kinda made me mad

But over it now

Lol

Oh well best get ready for work

Love you forever 

Today tomorrow and always 

Daddy 

ps; thank you for texting me ❤️❤️❤️😍😘

9-21-14

Hi Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you?

Happy Sunday

Sorry I'm late today writing this 

Where I was last night I didn't have service 

Oops

I went to Blackpool

They have a tower

That's 525 meters high 

About 35 stories

I went to the top which is semi-open.

Real cold up there 

Lol

It was fun though

Quite a long drive tbh

I spoke (Facebook messsenger) with Brian overnight 

They are good

That's good 

I wish I was part of the life there again but afraid not for a while 

Soon maybe?

He was asking about the iPhone 6 and 6+

I only know what I've seen but hopefully they'll be good

I certainly like iOS 8

But that's coz its new!

I'm really tired

Think I'll take a nap

I did take some pictures yesterday but I didn't see the illuminations which was sad

By the time I they were on I fell asleep as I didn't feel too good

Oh well that's the way that it goes 

No big deal

I saw Ben yesterday for his birthday

That was nice 

We ate together

I had a full breakfast

I have to remember not to have beans

It's just bad for me 

How are you?

Thank you for your text today 

It's so nice to hear from you both

I love and miss you 

Always and forever 

Daddy xoxo 😍❤️

9-20-14

Hi Sebastian and Kaitlin

How are you

Hope all is well

Happy Saturday

How was school this week 

Did you learn exciting and new stuff

Have you see Stephanie, Tammy and Benton

I haven't heard from them all week

That's very odd

I did have a missed call from other mummy 

But she never calls back

I left several messages for her 

Via viber and text 

Weird

Anyway is all ok with everyone?

I certainly hope so

Aunt Sherry got herself a new iPhone 6 today 

That's way cool

64gb 

Jealous

But it's all good 

She's loving it 

I think she's a little jealous that I am spending the weekend with Ben

But that's her issue 

I wanted to see Ben for his birthday 

Next weekend and many more afterward are all about Sherry

She's here from 9/26 until 2/19

That's a long time

But it's a good time 

We'll have fun

We'll talk about how to get to you two 

How to get home

That's what matters 

Well that and starting a new life per se

Hopefully all will be good 

Hopefully she'll be happy 

A little worried about her right now as she's a little sick

I think she's way nervous

Who wouldn't be

I kinda remember when I moved to the states initially 

I was nervous about the meeting with Mary Ann

That turned out great

It will always turn out great 

I can't wait tbh

It's always a day closer to you and that's what matters to me

Nothing else and no one else will get in the way of me getting closer to you 

That's what my driving force is 

Seeing and holding you 

This morning Amelia May and Ben get to throw cold water (ice) over me for the ALS challenge

I'm good with that 

Lol

That's quite funny 

I slept on the floor tonight here 

Quite comfy actually 

So I'm good

Puts like camping 😎😎

I miss you

I love you 

I wish I were with you 

Happy Saturday 

Love forever

Always 

Daddy xoxo 😍😘😎❤️💋

Hi 9-19-14

Hi

Thank you for the texts and the pictures 

They are great 

Wow

Kaitlin you are so big now

That's awesome

I miss you 

The rain last night was amazing 

Wow

There was so much 

Plus the Lightning 

Kinda cool to be honest 

In,Ike it 

Just wish it were not at 139am

I'm so tired this morning 

Lol

I need more sleep 

I updated grandma's iPad and iPhone last night 

They are having an extension on the kitchen

Quite a mess there 

But once done that will look good 

Can't wait 

They are happy that the new ios8 is on their iPad and iPhone 

Means it's just that much quicker now 

I've noticed that it uses more battery 

Darn it :-( 

Oh well I'll just keep it plugged in more

Not like that's hard work

In a week I'll be getting up and going to pick up aunt sherry 

Wow

That's so quick

She's here until February I think 

Again that's a long time

But we'll see 

Hopefully she'll be happy 

One never knows

I'm delaying the application to fight to return home for a few months 

This is so I can hear from the judge in California and whether she'll let the felonies go

If she does that will make applications for work and funding and immigration better 

I hope she will see that I am not a threat 

If she doesn't I'll apply for the 212 and see what immigration say 

I suspect that they will say no

But one can only try..

My goal is to be near you 

To get to hold you to see you and to be part of your life in real life 

It's very hard being on the sidelines especially from so far away 

I miss you so much 

I love you with all my heart 

Daddy 

Today tomorrow and forever 

❤️❤️❤️

Hi 9-18-14

Good morning 

How are you both?

Awesome that you lost a tooth

That's fantastic Sebastian 

Was it a front one or a back one?

Sweet

Can you send a picture?

Talking of pictures did you get the ones from picture day back yet?

I hope so

I hope that you'll get me some

Or at least send me the link so I can order

Please 

How is school?

What are you learning?

I hope it's interesting 

I'm told that I always loved school 

I can understand why 

Maybe I should be a teacher or a professor at a university 

That would be quite cool 

But we'll see 

Aunt Sherry booked her tickets 

That's cool

She's excited and very nervous

As am I 

She'll staying with me here at 28 for a while and then I will try to get an apartment

That will make it better for her and I

As we'll not be in the way of Siobhan (roommate)

Siobhan's been great but ... 

Yesterday I went for a walk by the river 

I'll send you the pictures later today 

It was calming and nice 

I love being next to the water

I did notice that my heal is all split again though - that's not a good thing

Oh well 

It's life and it's the way that things go

I spent a few hours updating the iPad and iPhone to ios8 last night 

The software is actually better 

So it's a good idea to update

Do you know how to do it?

Does mom still have the old one that I had?

I thought she might have broken it I'm not sure 

Anyway I can send you a text on how to update it 

I miss you and I love you with all my heart 

Wish I were there with you 

Wish I were able to hold you 

To see your smile 

To pick you up from school and spend the afternoon with you 

That would be brilliant 

I hope you remember the good times we had together and not just the bad times that we've been apart

It kills me to not be with there with you 

You both are all I ever wanted in life - family 

Love always 

Today tomorrow and forever - Daddy xoxo

Hi 9-17-14

Good morning 

How are you both?

I hope that you are ok

I am ok

Just about :-(

So very tired these days 

I do my know why

I've been sleeping 

Weird

Aunt Sherry will be here on the 26th and until February 

That's a long time 

Then she'll return to the USA presumably for a month or so

Who knows what that plan is 

Lol

It will be fun to have her here I think 

She's going to be full on demanding 

But that should still be fun

We'll see

Work has been work

Ouch

The last few days have been awful 

But that's ok

I'll bet past it 

I don't mean to complain I am just tired 

I know that people without jobs will have a much harder time

What is happening in school 

The teachers haven't written to me in a while 

I hope all is ok 

Other mummy called me this morning 

Is everything ok

I hope so

I miss you so much 

I worry about you both all the time

I hate being here and you there 

It's very hard work

Oh well

Life right?

I miss you so much 

I miss the little things 

Like wake up,time

Getting you guys ready for school 

Not that I'd have to do that anymore. 

But I miss it nevertheless

It's hard to wake up every morning knowing that the two people who you love most in the world are not here with you and you are not there with them 

It's very hard 

But we survive coz we have to and that's the way that life is

I'm scared that you'll never want to see me or hold me again 

Or that we'll never get the opportunity to hold one another 

I certainly hope that it is not too late 

I love you both 

With all my heart and soul

Today tomorrow and forever 

Daddy xoxo

Hi 9-16-14

Good morning 

How are you?

How was your Monday

Was school good

What did you learn

Anything exciting?

Hopefully your teachers are still great 

I miss you

I miss the day to day stuff that we used to do

I miss holding you

I miss making you food

I miss everything about being a dad

Even laundry!!

When I awake I immediately start to think what are you doing 

What's school like

Who are your friends 

All the questions that I'd know if I could be there with you

Soon 

Aunt Sherry is disappointed that she can't get the iPhone 6

She wanted it before she came here

Oh well 

Too bad 

Verizon say that they can ship one but not until mid-October

That's what they are saying here too

I'm unlikely to upgrade my 5s until later this year 

If at all

If a Aunt Sherry is here then it's unlikely that she'll be ok with me having one and her not

So I'll wait

She'll have to return to Oregon or Texas in February and that will be a good incentive for her

I hope she'll be ok with that 

Or we'll get her a phone and a plan here

Whatever she wants really I guess 

It's on her not I

She says that she's coming here on 9-25 but she's not booked a ticket yet

So we'll see 

I offered my work to go visit a client on Friday

Eamonn said that he'd see how the week pans out 

I think that's code for no

But well see

I'm not bothered either way tbh

I'm going to see Ben on the weekend 

We're going to go Blackpool 

It's a place in England that should be nice

I just want a quick break 

It's just. 24 whirlwind break as once sherry is here I'll be with her on the weekend 

I miss you so much 

I wish I were seeing you this weekend and every weekend 

Love you 

With all my heart
