Links I Love Week 31
Happy Sunday! I am pretty much all moved in and settled (minus a box of shoes). My Dad decided to make the drive from Ohio to visit. I have only been begging him since March to visit. It has been so hard not seeing family, this visit meant so much to me. We didn’t hug and I kept my distance, but my heart is so full. I stressed to him how important it was that he stay healthy. Hopefully, he decides to come visit more often in the future. He arrived a little on the skinny side although he didn’t agree, I did my best to feed him and send him home with cookies and other treats. He asked if I would mail him care packages just like I do my niece. How could I say no?
