late. I am sorry that I am so demanding. I am sorry that I am not more accepting. I feel ashamed
that I am not more loving. I don't want to reject you.
5. Love.. I love you. I understand that you were tired. You work so hard. I know you are doing
your best. I forgive you for forgetting. Thank you for making another appointment. Thank you
for wanting to take Hayley to the dentist. I know you really do care. I know you love me. I feel

Love, Samantha
P.S. I need to hear that you will be responsible to take Hayley next week to the dentist.
