I'm not going to say who did this, but I'm very upset when I'm accused of ignoring or not loving a kid more than someone else. 

I don't think you kids understand how much I put into this account. I love it with all my heart and I love you kids to absolute death, but I have a job that I need to pay my bills, I have pets and family to provide for, and I work out and try to stay active and healthy. And since my account has gotten so big, it's harder to keep up with everything that's going on. I can't be on every day either. 

But I try. I try because I love all of you so much. And it's frustrating and it's hard and it sucks when I can't get to all of you because I know you all need a bit of me to go around. But I'm one person. I'm trying my very best because this account, this family means everything to me. 

I don't choose favorites. I don't ignore you guys. I don't love someone any more than another here. I grew up in a home where favorites were chosen and I was never one of them. It hurt. It hurt because I hated myself for something I could never be and I never want you kiddos to feel like that. I never want to hurt you kids or make you feel like you don't belong here. 

I grew up feeling like I wasn't enough and that's why I made this account. You kids, knowing that you're growing up and you have a place to come to, that makes me feel like the pain I went through was all worth it. Because I can help you kids the best I'm able. 

Each and every one of you holds a special place in my heart. I've cried for you kids and prayed to whatever god is out there that your hardships would pass. Because I worry for you like you're my real, blood children. 

I know it's a struggle when I can't get to you or answer your PMs. But almost daily I have 60+ PMs that I can hardly get to. I try my best but some days I'm much too busy. 

I know as your dad I'm supposed to be there to answer your questions and to give you advice, but sometimes I won't have the answers. Sometimes I won't say what you want to hear. But I'll always tell you what you need to hear. I'll be honest and I won't sugarcoat the truth. Some of you know that first hand. 

So please kiddos, please be patient with me. I'm trying so hard to care for all of you. That doesn't change the fact I love all of you so much. Most people tend to throw the word 'love' around like it means nothing, but I will never use that term if it means nothing to me. So understand that I really do love you guys so much more than you know. 

Thank you kids for being here and listening, thank you for the love and kindness, and thank you for being there for one another. It means a lot to me.
