Secret #29
My dad works over seas in places like Iraq, (He's not a soldier, but job will be left unmentioned but it has to do with banking). He's been home for two years know, but is probably going back this October. The only reason he wouldn't go? If I didn't want him to. I told him it's okay, but really honestly and truthfully... it's not. But we need to money. But hey, it's just another birthday you'll miss, what's that... the 5th one in a row? Just more years of my life you'll be gone. You've always said you wanted to see me grow up, so where have you been? Not here with me... But it's okay daddy, I promise.  I love you no matter what. It's all a lie though, I miss you. The old happy you when money was never an issue and you actually talked to your family, the one where we'd play outside for hours building leave piles and snow forts, where you where home every night and would tuck me into bed and scared off the monsters. It's okay daddy, I promise it's fine, I love you daddy, but I miss you... the real happy you.

Can I just say something, It feels really good to get that off my chest,but I can't tell my dad any of this, because money is a serious issue right know, and I know he's only looking out for us...
