But I will ignore that feeling. <br /><br />Your father-in-law sounds like an amazing man. I hope one day to be reading one of your books and seeing a glimpse of him there. <br />My thoughts are with both of you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17775698658948958161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523176879771875815.post-48458624879433859662009-12-07T21:00:14.531-06:002009-12-07T21:00:14.531-06:00Cheers to all the heroes.

I was like, "I heard you had a crappy week." He was like, yeah, pretty much that in a nutshell. But who knows how these things will play out? We can't control the balance of life in the real world.

There really isn't anything that can be said at a time like this, except that I can tell from your post how blessed you are to have this man in your life. He sounds like a wonderful person, and I'm thinking of you all at this time. <br /><br />I have no doubt he'll crop up in your writing, and the support he's given you will be obvious in every word even if you never mentioned him.Ellen Brickleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01184391430927483100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523176879771875815.post-49002657183302582432009-12-07T08:47:58.072-06:002009-12-07T08:47:58.072-06:00Thanks GhostFolk.

I am very sad about this situation, but the writer in me knows she can put her motorcycle loving, former tour bus driver and all around good guy into the pages of her books. He'll be sneaking in a lot I'm sure.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05383099148014297450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5523176879771875815.post-43360008707826528112009-12-07T07:31:16.667-06:002009-12-07T07:31:16.667-06:00This is a beautiful post, Christine.
