Dear Debra, your beautiful story -- the comfort of that beautiful scarf; the steadiness of your father through every 9.45pm sit up session, trip to shul, and train drop-off -- were exactly what I needed this morning. Thank you for always bringing us into your world that moves so inextricably from past to present. Love you.
What a great father.
Thank you, Jim. I have a feeling that's exactly what your kids would say in describing you.
Thanks, Debra, I hope so. Also, thanks for the Hair story heads up. I entered a piece last night.
Just stunningly heartbreaking Debra. Beautifully told.
Oh, Moe. Thank you.
So beautiful. (I was crying by the seventh paragraph.)

Thank you, Laura. I'd be very glad to think I made him proud. xx
