Wow, things are going better. I keep remembering of that day in the hospital with my dad, and none of the trouble, abuse or hurt was there, it was just me & my dad - he loved me and I loved him! So I did this Layout of the letter I found and a photo of my dad holding me 3 days old.

Journaling: (okay, I can't really read the first paragraph and my dad's spelling isn't the greatest...) "Having your children with you, and having them around all the time, and growing up with them, and to love them all the time. For I have a Daughter her name is Sherry and I love her a lot, for to be with her would mean a lot to me.For I would give the world to be with her right here and now. For she is everything to me she is my life, my hope and my world all in one. For I pray the Lord god is with her all the days of her life. For I hope she will be with God laws, and grows to love God as I do. For if she lives with God and pray for what she needs, God will give it to her."
