Dear Dad,
I can even begin to tell you how excited I am that you are in my life again after what seemed like 2 years of not seeing each other. Although we both have been through some crap im just super duper glad we can hangout and see each other. Ive been longing for this type of relationship with my real father and for once I actually get to express my feelings to you in away that you can see how I feel. You may not know this but I made a gift for you for christmas and I don't expect you to fulfill the favor, it's something I want to do from father to son. Since im going on break maybe we can have a some type of christmas get together and I can't wait. The time that we didn't talk people kept telling me "Tanner you need to just forget about him, he won't ever care about you" and the fact that came back is a blessing to say the least because even though my stepdad is there for me it's honestly you I was trying to bond with this whole time. I know your sorry about the things you did to me but even though I forgive you and try to move on they're still there and my emotions have been jacked up since and I just want you to know it killed me when I found out you were seeing your other kids and I felt so alone knowing I wasn't good enough. Now I can feel some closure knowing that I'm actually important and I thank you for giving me another chance.
I'm glad that you're getting some "closure" on a chapter of difficult feelings and circumstances and that you seem to have good things to look forward to. Your dad is lucky to have a kind, smart son like you back in his life and hopefully you two can build from here. Thanks for sharing this, Tanner.
