Love really all you need….?
She said, “Don’t call the doctor, I want to fall asleep peacefully, with your hand in mine.” He told her about the past, how they met, their first kiss. they didn’t cry, they smiled. They didn’t regret anything, they were grateful. Then she repeated softly, ‘I love you forever!’ He returned her words, gave her […]
It’s not coming home!
Just spent a great couple of hours watching the Euro24 football final with Reagan, Lincoln was not interested and Mommy had travelled down to London earlier so it was just us. The game was between England who have not won anything since 1966 and Spain who have been the best team in the tournament so […]

Priorities reevaluated
