Wow! It has been four months since I've wrote anything. It's been very busy at work for me, as I would imagine many people as well. Just a message for my son....with hope that he reads this.
Your mom and I are content in where our lives are headed. She has received a new contract at the school and will be teaching again next semester. Her time will be split between two campus', Progress and Ashtonbee. She was a little disappointed that one of the contracts originally offered was withdrawn by the chair of the faculty as it was one of her favourite subject. However it was replaced with a another, more lucrative one, albeit teaching another subject. All in all, it worked out well, and she's keeping busy.
Both of us are quite aware Christmas is just around the corner, and it will be the second Christmas without you. I have not mentioned to your paternal grandparents that we have lost touch with you, and they ask of you quite often.
Of course, I usually tell then you're well and enjoying school (believe it or not, they keep track of how long it's been since you went off to school). I did tell them and the family that no Christmas presents for you this year please, as you won't be home and will be with friends. No, I decided not to tell your grandparents the truth, as they are both old with heart conditions, and don't want the news of a lost grandchild to be the cause of a downward spiral. Mind you, your grandmother suspects something is not quite right, and boy, there are times when I had to deflect quite often.
We miss you......
