Subject: I’m Sorry

Maria,

Ok, message sent and received. I don’t live your life and walk in your shoes. I had no right to ask that question of you and I apologize. We are friends, and for that reason alone, I should support you. I’m so sorry.

To answer your question, I don’t know why I am with Erica anymore. I honestly don’t. At this point it’s out of obligation. Kinda like you feel staying with Nate. I get it.

And now on to the best news…I AM A FATHER! Erica had the baby a month ago. I know I should have written and told you, but just like I thought, my life has exploded with responsibilities. We have a baby boy and his name is Michael, after Erica’s brother who passed away. We call him Mikey and he is the cutest. I’ll try to attach a pic to the email. I’ve never done that before, so hopefully it works.

And I had no ungodly clue that babies wake up at all hours of the night. Which is why I am responding to this at 2am. Erica doesn’t really get up with him much, so it kinda falls on me. Don’t get me wrong, I love it. But it’s a lot.

And on that note, he’s crying again. Let me go and get him. Write soon.

Yours, Sam

P.S. Also, how does so much crap come out of such a little human? Like seriously!
