From our family to yours!

And thank you from the bottom of my heart for your loving comments and positive thoughts about my dad!  He is getting stronger with every passing day.  In fact, he was discharged from the hospital and is now resting at home!  When I talked to him last night (I’m back in Miami), he asked what I was doing.  I told him I was getting ready to pre-write a blog post.  He told me to include a huge thanks and hello from him!!

HAPPY MONDAY!

    So glad to see you’re all doing well, especially your dad. It’s cute how they gave him a heart pillow… wishing your dad a speedy recovery.

      Thank you, Nisha! And that heart is awesome. Because they told him that it would be key to his recovery, my dad has it on him at all times!
