My dad was trying hard to feel better today. We went out for a little walk. Then, since it was a warmish day, we put some Christmas lights on the bushes. At lunch we talked about how being outside, getting fresh air, and moving makes you feel better. We talked about how moms used to tell their kids to go outside and play. My mom said when she was little, they would play outside all the time. In the evening they would play hide and seek. My mom’s father’s bakery where the family lived was “home” for the game where everyone would be “safe”. I thought it was a wonderful memory.

I Found God today in a wonderful memory my mom had of her childhood.
