Dear Bella Baby 88,

Hey, beautiful. How's my little girl? I love you, kid. (: Looking at your pictures every day puts tears in my eyes and a smile on my sad face. I promise I will never judge you, I promise to love you no matter what mistakes you make, I promise to do anything I can for you. You are my daughter; I will sacrifice anything for you. Please forgive me for not being a good father.

You can ask me anything, talk to me about anything; I will do my best to help you in any way I can. I don't when I can call you again; I will have to find some money (we have pre-pay for phone calls in here). But when I do, I will call. I promise.

Your uncle Justin works 7pm-6am, so he is always busy. And then he has to take care of your little cousin Lucciana.

I have never said you "ain't shit". I have done nothing but worry my brains out about you since you cut me off 2 years ago. Now that I have you back, I will do nothing but love you, support you, and help you in any way that I can. I love you, honey. I never knew it was possible to love someone you never really knew until you.

Every time I write to you, I will find a way to send you a stamp and an envelope so you can write back to me.

I'm sorry I failed you, kid. I will do my best to do better. I never want to disappoint you, Krista. Not many things make me cry, but not being there for you, missing your entire childhood, knowing I failed my child—it hurts. We are getting to know each other, so please be patient with me as well, honey. I am definitely not perfect, but I need my little girl in my life.

Okay. Take very good care of yourself, and I hope you write to me soon. I love you, angel. Ciao bella. Ti amo. Dad.

P.S. Where did Bella baby 88 come from?
