..and easter is coming soon too! so i will be adding eggs in those twigs later.
A few months ago, There was an event called writing a love letter to your father and I always wanted to write one for my beloved Late father who passed away in 2002, I know it's kind of silly but i did it anyway and today I got an email saying that the letter I wrote (in Indonesian as the event was from a book publisher over there)is being put in the book along with other people's letters to their fathers who were chosen, I'm so happy and excited! furthermore, it's for a good cause coz the profit from selling the book will go to charity in Indonesia. So now I'm thinking on how to get the copy of the book and send it to the UK, might have to call home and ask them to post it to me.
I love the cover of the book and yes the event was called "Dear Papa" coz lots of indonesian call their father Papa just as I used to call my dad, Papa...I still miss him, every single day.
I hope everyone has a great and blessed Weekend!
oh how fantastic that your letter is to be printed, what a great way to honour your dad, my dad has passed away too and I know there are so many things i would have liked to say so this is so touching that a book like this is being printed. Love your spring trinkets, looks beautiful, lets have some of that spring sunshine now :o) Scarlett x

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your letter being chosen for the publication! What a sweet idea...I'm sure your letter was beautifully written, and that your father treasures it from his sweet repose.
ReplyDeleteYour mantel looks awesome. Your hubby must wonder sometimes, what sweet surprise he is coming home to.
