This is what I drafted so far:

"Hey Wife, I took care of the bill. I think we got off on the wrong foot regarding the bill; I also could have taken better care of that bill. We should not have argued in front of Ezra. How about we bury that and start as good parents for him?

Alamo"

My reasoning is I paid the bilk and want to communicate to her that I did, instead of waiting for her to ask.
