I hope you are having a Merry Christmas, wherever you are. I love you, I think about you every day.

Below you will find the letter I sent to you both on Christmas of 2024. I hand wrote each of you a copy, but this is what was in the letter. I changed your individual names to “girls” so I could just put it here one time.

Dear Girls,

I don’t know where to begin…it has been so long since I have been allowed to talk to you. Maybe I should start there. I never stopped trying to talk to you. I attempted to skype every day I was supposed to and I travelled to Florida every holiday, every summer for the past 3 years trying to get to see you like I was supposed to. I asked every time I showed up. Your mother ignored my texts, when I went to court she disobeyed the court, lied to the court and changed lawyers 4 different times to stall the court. I have the texts, I have the pictures, the receipts for rooms and the messages and court filings. I realize you have been manipulated and misled about me non-stop for most of your life, so I kept the receipts to back up what I’m saying.

I honestly don’t understand why you haven’t reached out. I thought for sure, when you turned 18 she would no longer have complete control over you, that you could talk to me then…and there was no contact. Girls, you’ve been led to believe some things that aren’t true and never happened to you while you were with me. I don’t understand how that can occur, but I haven’t been through what you have down there.

I have never done anything to hurt you. I never will. The allegations that your mother made against me in court, the protection order she got with those allegations none of it was true. I can help you see the truth. Not with emotional stuff, but with facts. Things you can agree are true. I know you’ve been jerked around and emotionally it’s been a mess, but I can help you see the reality without tugging on your emotions. When you’re ready.

I want you to have a good life. I want you to find peace and happiness, and have a meaningful personal relationship with God. That’s it babe. I’m not looking for revenge or drama or anything else. I just want to help my little firefly navigate this world. I love you with all of my heart. I would very much like to talk to you. I feel like if you asked me things, or told me things, or just yelled at me, just hearing your voice would be so nice.

When you are ready, I am here. When you need something, I am here. I’ve missed out on proms and graduations and summers and so many things. I just want to be a part of your life. That’s all I’ve ever wanted.

I hope you have a Merry Christmas. The last one of those I had was with you. I love you Hooman. I want to send you some things, but until I know for sure you can receive them I am hesitant. I sent you things all along just to see your mother sell them on her Facebook Marketplace Site. So until I know for sure you will get what I send, I’m going to hold off.

I love you, I miss you, I can’t wait to see you again. I’m here when you need me, love…Dad.
