My Dad was a good father, a great model, though very humble and never looking for kudos. I love the art too, so delighted with my artist's work. I sent her the story and waited to see where she'd take it.Carolyn R.

I'm pleased to see that my family is excited about the book and my granddaughters get their copy tomorrow when I see them. I look forward to seeing their reactions.<br /><br />Most of the copies are now spoken for, minus a small number. A networking friend asked me this week when we met for lunch (her treat), "Where can I get a copy?" Fortunately I had one for her.Carolyn R.

Our tree is out in the cold, but it is protected by a wire cage around it so the bunnies don't eat it.<br /><br />Maja gets her copies soon too. I know she's excited.<br />Carolyn R.

Your book will surely serve as a continuing legacy and tribute to his character and endearing qualities.

Your dad is lucky to have a daughter who not only wants to keep his memory and his values alive, but who has the ability to write about it and see the project to completion. I'd love to read the whole book.<br />Ruth Smith Meyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09471049305307500874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213977381458736343.post-85131477279048450962017-01-11T17:03:07.047-05:002017-01-11T17:03:07.047-05:00I am so excited for you, Carolyn.

And I am so thrilled to say that one of your 'Dad Trees' is still alive and doing well. I brought it in for the winter. I couldn't bear the thought of it overwintering - the poor wee fragile thing it is right now. <br /><br />This book will be a precious treasure for you and for family. What a beautiful heart you have. <br /><br />Well done! Glynishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621548333351709607noreply@blogger.com
