I've been reading a lot lately. My shoulder doesn't want me to sleep through the night, so I read to go to sleep and again when I wake up to go back to sleep. This hardcover book was given to me, but I don't remember by whom or when? It was released in 2015. I put off reading it as it involves hospice and I thought it would be a downer. Boy, was I wrong. I reluctantly started it as a next-read when I completed The Dutch House. It won me over, quickly. Beautifully written, real characters that are engaging and grow on you. Has anyone read it?       I can gladly recommend it, and a big thank you to my giver.

 

  

 

 

Another old story ...

 

I have a lot of photos and stories to go with most. 

 

 

He had been awarded a stripe for his purple belt 

after his second class. Just a 8" white grosgrain ribbon, 

but so important to the students as it signified advancement. 

We had the policy that the recipient should sew his stripe on.

Cole asked for thread and a needle and spent 35 minutes.

 His first time sewing anything. 

Afterwards I found him sleeping and got this photo. 
I love old photos.
