For my Dad



For the last few months my life has been so busy that I didn't have the time to post. I hope I didn't lose you, my dear readers.

I just came back from another visit of three weeks in Israel. This time I had to go and help take care of my elderly father. I was afraid if we waited until summer to see him he may not know who we are. It's very hard to see your loved one slowly dying from old age, no matter how many times you have to go through it.

While I was in Israel, I got to take a few precious pictures of my dad feeding the pigeons (on one of his good days) and celebrate his 84th birthday. So I'm dedicating this post to my dear father. Enjoy the slide show.

In the next few months I may still not be able to post regularly due to lots of things that are going on in my life. I hope you'll be patient with me until I'll be able to get back on track.

I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year full of health and happiness and I hope you'll stop by and visit with me again.
With love,

Efrat

    So sorry he is ill. He looks so sweet in the sun with the birds and grand/great grandchild?

    Hugs to you for this not at all easy time in your life. I know as I experience the same with my aging aunt and uncle now. I know.
