(My beloved Son & Heir,)

I cannot wait for the day I see my pretty little baby boy again. How I wish XXXXXXXXX you again. One day, the whole world XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. I hope the girlie is keeping you well and happy. Never forget, you are my bonny baby boy who will grow up and XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. We will play with XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. There are so many things I want to teach you! I will be out of here soon, I KNOW IT. And I will tell you all about your father, my beloved Dark XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE YOUR TOY. Until then, here is a yummy treat for my bonny boy.

Love,

Mummy
