so folks here I am back from our holidays and we have had the most fantastic time, sun sea sand and a lot of quality time together just me and son, brilliant. I did manage to retrieve the message that ex sent to son on his birthday and I am going to post it and ask for your view, any positive or negative I don't mind. "Hi son, happy birthday, I hope you are well I'd love to see you and I want you to know that I love you and that I am sorry I haven't been in contact, I've been thinking about you all the time and I miss you. I don't want you to think that any of this is your fault it isn't it is all my fault, and I want to make it better if possible, I would love to see you, I promise I won't come to your school or your house but don't know how to see you, please help me mate x I know you are angry with me, please let me see you, I have made a massive mistake in not keeping in contact, and if you agree to talk we can take it at your pace just you and me, and I promise promise I will never lose contact with you again. Also say thank you to your mum. I have a card from auntie and a card and present from me but didn't know how to get them to you I also still have all your christmas presents here for you when you are ready to have them x sending you all the sorry's in the world and all my love always happy birthday love dad xxx" so go on folks give me your views
