Your father sounds like such a wonderful man! The stories you tell make me smile as he was seemingly full of Hungarian tenacity which I recognize from my own father! I will pray for him and all the faithfully departed. Your winter looks to be unfolding beautifully with a lovely mix of both indoor and outdoor fun. Enjoy!
