Saturday, May 8, 2010: Hi Sam! I am home. Finally. It was a long drive from the border. This was the first Saturday of my court appointed visitation. Can you believe it? I have been the responsible parent from Day 1 and then some. I am not the child abductor or running a prostitution business out of my home. Yet I am the one being treated like a criminal. I am very frustrated.
This does not take away from our time together Sweetie. I had a great time with you as always. Most of the time we were outside. I am not sure if the nanny and Maria Guadalupe Tenorio Toledano (AKA Lupita Tenorio, Marsha Tenorio) were told to keep us outside or if it just worked out that way. I guess we will find out next week. All’s I know is that it took Adriana Coronel Tenorio (AKA Adriana Howitt Coronel, Ari Coronel, Ari Coronel Tenorio, Ari Howitt, Ari Howitt Coronel) 3-hours just to come out and say “hello”. Not that she owes me anything, but interesting none the less. We played in and around the swings before we went to the store to buy stuff to make cupcakes. You were so adorable helping me frost the cupcakes. Then it was Iron Man on DVD. You were more interested in painting my face like a cat, just like you did to yourself. You are such a great artist!
The time was just too short. It feels like we are in a prison. I’m sure that is no accident. The gates to the house are always locked. Everyone was looking after us like a buzzard swarming over a dead carcass in the desert. It was humiliating. I can’t take you to the movies on our own. I can’t take you out to eat or to the beach. I can’t kiss you good-morning or kiss you good-night. I have had to put up with this for 18-months.
While you were painting my face, Adriana told me “Sam loves you so much” and that she could tell by the way you look at me. If Adriana of all people can say that, how could any mother accept their daughter only spending 6-hours a week with their real Dad? I asked Adriana how she would feel if she were in my shoes and she could only see you 6-hours a week? She ignored me and started talking to Maria Guadalupe instead. She knew the answer. You had fallen asleep at this point.
The 6-hours every Saturday came from the Supreme Court. It is not the end of the battle by any stretch and Adriana knows it. This is only showing who Adriana for who she really is. We had an agreement that I would take care of all your things if I can see you every other weekend and one day a week. That was fair while we figure out the rest of this case. I have no idea why Adriana has done a complete 180. If there is a blessing it’s that I will never stopped fighting for you. This is because Adriana NEVER does what she says she will do. So, onward and upward.
Sam, I LOVE YOU WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING SAM! The fight for your honor is just beginning. I will always fight for your honor my Princess!
