My love,
The plane ride back to Canada was especially difficult this time. Things did not get better with the passing of time, as you and our son slipped further and further away from my grasp. My thoughts also became difficult to bear, feeling somehow that my duties and responsibilities as a husband and father were somehow compromised, and that you and your mom will need to help pick up the slack. I look forward to a time where we can be together at long last, and I truly feel that that time will come soon.
I picture a time where you and Justin will finally be able to join me here. Our beginnings here will initially be humble and full of challenges, but overall I am optimistic. A great many people came here from afar and succeeded, so we need only to follow their lead.
I have already begun the search for our new home. Of course, I will keep you informed about the places I've seen. Hopefully, it will be near my mother and father. Many questions have come to mind, and it's confusing sometimes. How I can make the transition for you easier? I am thinking about how you can care for the baby while not feeling "trapped" in a house. There are parks nearby, but what about shopping? Also, if I am buying a house for the long-term I may also need to look at nearby schools and their reputation? So many things, it seems. Daunting. But again, it's been done before, and I have many good friends and family members who would lend me an ear.
Our beginnings as a family will be humble in some ways, and rich in others. I look forward to working hard to build our family, and enjoying the process. I believe true wealth is in health and in the love we share amongst ourselves and with others. How exciting it is, to share this blessed journey with you!
My love, wait for me, it will not be long...
