I never stopped loving her—not when she left me and took our son, not even when she asked for a divorce a few months ago. I deserved it. I didn’t know how to love her right at that young age. But now I’m older and know what I want. More importantly, I know what she needs me to be. With only days before Christmas, I need to make her fall in love with me again and cancel the filing of the divorce.

Can I get her to change her mind and see us for the family we’re meant to be?

Or will I fail at saving Christmas?
