Author's Note: Since the new season is starting on 9/21/09, it's time for me to update. Hope everyone had a wonderful Summer.

Dear Dad,

Here I am! As always. We've both been very busy, haven't we? You in your world of politics, and me in my own little world. Can't say we're a normal family, but we are family. Forever, right?

I just wish we could erase what Fate had in store for us. But since we can't, we'll have to make the most of what lies ahead for us. I'm hoping for bigger and better things for the Petrellis and for the Bennetts. Don't you?

Thank you for Mexico. I've never felt so close to you as I have when we spent that time together. It's not the usual father daughter outing I would have expected, but still we were together. I wouldn't change it for anything, and I certainly wouldn't change you for anything. Don't apologize for your behavior. I found out the real Nathan Petrelli that day. Instead of that cold heartless person you portray to most everyone, you were exactly the opposite. You're kind, caring, and sensitive. If I had any doubts about you, I don't anymore...I know you really do love me. I love you, too.

At times, I do regret not "growing up Petrelli", but it's better late than never.

I hope I won't be a disappointment to you. I want to be the daughter you want me to be. I'll make you proud of me as I am of you.

You are amazing. You'll always be my Superman.

Love,

Claire
