Hi Kelly,
It's late, and I'm not sure why I'm commenting. I love your blog, but I'm normally just a pop in and see what you've been up to kind of person. Once or twice a month.
But I woke up from a lovely sleep, and thought of you. I keep seeing the photos in my mind that you posted a while ago of your dad's notes that he would leave around for you. It's so beautiful that he did that. And even more beautiful is that your love, and how you miss him, is a testament to the charm and grace of your father. It's wonderful the love you two shared. Surely, he must live on in his written words, and in the echo of his patience and love.
Anyway, it's weird but I thought you might like to know that, even now, your papa is touching lives and spreading grace. Thanks for sharing that bit of your world with us. I've begun leaving little notes hidden away for the people I love too. I hope I'm worthy of the teacher who gave me the idea.
Thanks for your generous heart. Have a good night. XxOo
Peggy, Thanks for your kind words. I love the idea that you are leaving notes for loved ones to find. My Dad was a big sender of cards and postcards. I write notes to Tristan when I go away and his Dad gives them to him daily. I write notes and cards to my family, as well. David always gets love letters in the form of real letters and journal pages. You must have misunderstood me as Dad was always writing on scraps of paper but they weren't for us to find. They were for him, especially in his line of work, he was always making notes. :) I consider them gifts though as I was so happy to have them after he was gone. I love handwritten things and especially having these bits from my Dad, makes them all the more precious. :) I love that you took the idea and you are doing it yourself. That makes my heart smile big. Xo
