Dear Pa

I finally found your new address in Vanhoover. It took me forever to find it. I hope things are going well for you and the new farm. There's so much I wish I could tell you, I don't know where to begin. I guess I should start with this.
You're gonna be a granddaddy! I'm five months along now...I hope you got the pictures I sent with this letter. It's a colt, and his name will be Big Mac. I can't wait to meet him, and I hope you'll get to meet him one day too.
Life has been great here at Sweet Apple Acres. I've been learning all sorts of ways to cook apple pies, apple fritters, cakes, dumplings, and so much more. I wish I could have sent you some to try, but Granny has a strict tradition about sending product this far. She says they'll spoil and the quality won't compare. I guess you'll have to visit one day and try them. You could bring some food of your own for us to try!
Bright Mac and I are happily married, as you know. I wouldn't have it any other way. Just the other day he saved me from an old apple tree that nearly fell on top of me. I really wish you could have gotten to know him, and the rest of my family better. I've realized just how alike we all are.
I just wanted to write to you to let you know that I'm happy. I am okay, and I hope you are as well. There honestly isn't a day that goes by where you aren't on my mind. I know you probably don't want to see me or Bright Mac for that matter, but I still wanted to reach out to you.
I don't care what happened between the pears and the apples. I don't care if you hate me. I don't care if you're still mad. You will always be my pa and there's nothing I can do to change that. You're always welcome here with me and my family, because they're your family now too whether you like it or not.
Hope to hear from you soon...
I miss you.
