FINALLY, I GET TO TALK TO AT LEAST ONE OF THEM THE KIDS. FOR WHAT IT IS WORTH, I WILL TAKE IT. LAST NIGHT WAS NEW YEARS DAY. THE DAY WAS TUESDAY. THE TIME WAS 6:02P. I WAS AT MY LOCAL COFFEE SHOP WHEN I DECIDED TO CALL THE KIDS. KNOWINGLY I WOULD GET THE ANSWER MACHINE. INSTEAD, THE GAME CONTINUES WITH MY EX-WIFE ANSWERING THE PHONE AND SAYING "HANG-ON." THIS TIME I HESITATED. I PAUSE QUICKLY AND START USING MY HEAD. I DECLINE THE INVITATION TO ACCEPT AND SPEAK. I SAY NOTHING. SHE HANDS THE PHONE OVER TO THE MIDDLE SON AND WE START TALKING. BASICALLY, THE YOUNGEST ONE SAYS HI AND BYE. THAT IS IT. AND MY DAUGHTER AGAIN REFUSES TO TALK. WHAT I AM AFRAID OF IS ALL THREE KIDS DECLINING TO SPEAK. IF THAT HAPPENS. THEN, I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION TO THE EXTREME. I WILL FIGHT IT TO THE BITTER END. ANYWAY, THE MIDDLE SON AND I SPOKE ON THE PHONE FOR ABOUT THIRTY-MINUTES. MY SON AND I SUNG CHRISTMAS SONGS AND BIRTHDAY SONGS. FOR EXAMPLE, RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSE REINDEER. FROSTY THE SNOW MAN, JINGLE BELLS, DASHING THROUGH THE SNOW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, AND I BELIEVE THERE WAS ONE MORE. MY SON AND I DID THIS FOR ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES UNTIL HE SAID,"DAD I AM TIRED." HE WAS MENTIONED HE GOT A SPIDER MAN SLEEPING BAG FROM SANTA. I LOVE HIM AL OT.I REALLY HAD A GREAT TIME WITH HIM. BEFORE WE ENDED ARE CONVERSATION, I KEPT REMINDED HIM,(THE MIDDLE SON), THAT "I LOVE YOU". AND " I MISS YOU VERY MUCH".
MY MIDDLE SON SAID THE SAME THING BACK TO ME. I WANTED HIM TO KNOW THAT I WILL ALWAYS, ALWAYS LOVE HIM. AND I WILL.
