Family Time

 
 
 

 

Blogging is a funny thing. I try to keep my blog posts calm, senere and happy, with pretty pictures to set the tone. But sometimes real life is far from happy and it just doesn't feel right to go along as usual. My father in law passed away yesterday; a man very much loved and admired by his family and friends. I will be taking some time off from blogging to concentrate on family. I know you all will understand.

    I am sorry to hear your father-in-law passed. I will say a prayer for him and for your family. I understand, taking time off is a necessary thing because it is not as important as your family. Take care and look forward to seeing you when you are able to come back!
