Hey y'all! It's me! Sorry I haven't updated in forever! My life's been pretty hectic…and sadly, it still is, so I think I won't be able to update again until next week. But on the plus side, I updated today, so YAY! :) I'm sorry it's so short, but it's all I had time for. Hopefully it isn't rushed and it still is good, so ENJOY!

Dear Roxanne,

Funny story, you see I was just doing my daily motherly duties, cleaning and what not, when suddenly I came across a stack of letters in the drawer of the desk in your dad's study. I didn't think much of it at first, probably letters he had written to someone and had forgotten to send (Your dad seems to do that a lot), or an invoice for supplies needed for the shop or something. But, me being…well, me, I had to look and see what they were. Turns out he's been writing you letters ever since you were born. I never knew your dad was doing this until now. Things like this always remind me why I love him so much. I really wish I could tell everyone in the family what a cool thing your daddy's doing for you, but I see he swore you to secrecy in the first letter, so I'll respect his wishes. I feel so bad, poor Freddie's not going to have something sentimental like this. Maybe I should write letters to him…

I thought it'd be only fair that I'd write you a letter. Also, there are some things I need to make clear to you. First, you can come to me with anything. You can share anything with me, and I'll listen and give you the best advice I can. Your father and I have been married forever and he has still yet to realize that. Your dad had no right to tell you that you couldn't tell me about these letters.

Secondly, don't ever listen to your dad when he complains about me trying to talk everything out with him. He's such a hypocrite. He says, and I quote, 'You won't sodding shut up', but then five minutes later he'll say, 'We never talk anymore!' Do you understand why I get upset?

Third, understand how much your father and I love each other. I read that letter he wrote you two days before your birthday, and I had to say, I was touched. Sure we fight, and scream and curse at each other, but we always kiss and make up. (Well, snog and shag would be more like it.) When I'm with your dad Roxanne, I feel like I'm a love struck teenager. Every time we kiss, it's just as magical as the first. I hope you get to experience that feeling one day. It's such a great, great feeling.

It's tough living life in the limelight Rox, and when you're older, you'll definitely understand. Both your father and I have demanding jobs on top of the fame and fortune that comes with it, but coming home and getting time to spend with each other and you and Fred make it all worthwhile. Your father is such a remarkable man, and although you are an almost exact replica of me, I know in my heart you'll always be just like your dad.

Love you, my sweet pea.

Mum
