My lovely son George Bill,
I want you to know how special you are. Since
you came to my life I discovered the top of the love, I’m not talking about
when you were born, but from the time your mother realized she was pregnant.
When you were about four in your mon’s belly and I touched her stomach you
moved continuously like sending me a clear message about how much you love me.
The day you were born is in my head as it was
yesterday, it has been already three years and seven months from that moment to
now. I remember I was in Bávaro that December 30th when
from a text message from your mommy said: George is about to was born, it was
3:00am when she sent it but I realized at 6:00 am., I couldn’t concentrate that
bright morning at all in my job, I was so anxious to see you. It was kind hard
to get days off in Christmas days but hopefully I talked with my boss and gave
me the permission. I worked in the morning and ended at noon three hours before
than the time I was suppose to finish, but the fact of seeing you for
first time putted wheels in my feet.
Right now I am in Plymouth New Hampshire
participating for the National Writing Project, I feel so good here but I miss
you a lot. It is not the same, I can’t touch you or kiss you. It is true that
thanks to the technology I am able to see you almost every day what make me
very happy when you say in front of the camera: papi, papi… and tell me
that your day was good and show your toys especially little cars. Through
the years this love is increasing more and more as it doesn’t have limit. Words
can’t express what you mean to me
I know now you will not
be able to understand or even less at least to read my letter but I know
one day when you grow up you will understand how big is
the magnitude of this great love I feel for you.
Your father,
Jorge Palmero
