Kimmydawn made a great point. EXPECTATIONS. Someday if I do choose to contact my biological father, I must remember to have very low expectations of the encounter. I miss the Dad I thought I had. I dislike very much the man he truly is. It would be easier for me to contact him if it wasn't for his wife. When I called a few years back to tell him I was coming to take my grandmother out, he actually asked his wife if it was okay. LMAO I call that Pwhipped. The day I picked my Babca up, no one was suppose to be there. I was quite surprised to see him exit the house. I guess his wife made him stay home as she probably thought I would burn the house down or something.

I did briefly feel bad for him. I had brought my Babca a picture of me and her 3 great grandchildren. She forgot to take it when I dropped her off. I had to go back and give it to her. I told my father that I would leave the picture in the mailbox. Again, he met me. I watched him look at the picture as he walked into the house. I felt bad because he has 3 incredible grandchildren that he will never see unless they decide to see him when they are much older. These kids consider my Mom's second husband their Grampy. And what a great Grampy he was.
