But you were taken from me ten years before you were I met you that one day . You’ve grown into a man I’m really proud of and I’m really sorry I didn’t tell you earlier I was just really scared of how you would react and I didn’t want you to leave me. I love you ,I put the house in your name and all the food stamps are yours ,you’ll also get wealth fare checks on every first of the month. I hope you live a great life the house is yours .
