Dear Paul,
How was I to know that you were watching me sleep? I awoke to see you laying there and just then, you smiled and said hi and that just melted me. I wish with all of my heart that I could wake to your beautiful eyes for the rest of my life.I hated to leave but as I have told you, I left a big part of me with you.
It is yours now so, take care and tread lightly. I wish that I could be with you now as you face so many struggles, but know that I am there in spirit and am praying for everything to work out for you. No matter where this life takes us, together or not, know that you and your girls will always be in my heart and "my favorite." Love always,Amanda

Beloved father and mother:
How do you do!
If you are the water, then I am the small fish in the water; if you are the blue sky, I am the little bird flying in the sky; if you are the sea, I am the coral reef in the sea.
It is very early to tell you what I have said in my heart. I have never had a chance to tell you about it in the middle of the exam.
When I was born, you were afraid of money and sent me to the countrys aunts house. An aunt to me very well, when I get married daughter, I live very happily. At the age of nine, you sent me to the home of the great man in the city, where I had been suffering for three years because they did not see me as a man. Three years later, back to you, I think I will be very happy and happy, but you...
Because Im not growing up with you, you dont trust me, you know how I want your understanding and trust!
Remember that year, one night, you know that I called the countrys aunt, you gave me a meal, looked at the body of blood, I couldnt help crying, but you are screwing my ears, my heart is very painful, more painful. And let me kneel on the floor brick for two or three hours. You too did not understand me, they bear bitter hardships to bring me up, shouldnt I call them?
You know, how I hope to get your understanding!
On that day, the teacher asked to pay the book for twenty yuan. When I speak to you, your great response, Dad shouted to me: "tomorrow let your teacher to write a check up, is not really to pay!" your mother is saying: "I ask tomorrow!" you know, you hurt her pure heart ah! The second day, the teacher call you, after confirming you dont apologize to me, but that day for money!
You know how I want to get your trust!
Its the wind! You blow a little faster and wake up your mom and dads brain! Let them wake up!
Small fish also need freedom, birds need to understand, and coral reefs need trust, isnt it?
Mom and Dad, just ask the wind to tell you what I think!
This
Salute!
Your daughter: X
