I found that in blogging their stories and recounting their memories and those of my own childhood, somehow brought me closer to them and made me appreciate them even more. I look forward to seeing you return to the world of blogging.

Others can learn from what you wrote. You've got such a loving family, from the children, your siblings and your parents. It's always a pleasure to read about something you've done as a family...and for abt. 6 years, I've read quite a few things.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-767071377527744755.post-4360424112910963232016-01-11T16:02:31.803-05:002016-01-11T16:02:31.803-05:00I am in the same boat---my parents are 85 and 89 a...I am in the same boat---my parents are 85 and 89 and were doing well until very recently. But I live two hours away, so I mostly am relying on the phone every day. I find a certain new urgency in asking questions and listening. All the best to you and to your parents.Amyhttp://www.brotmanblog.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
