For Wink Day
this month I taught our boys how to play Tiddly "Winks". I have sweet memories of my Grandpa teaching me how to play when I was a little girl.
Each time it was our turn, we'd say something we loved about Caleb then take our shot.
When we finished the game, we wrote in our wink journals about how we would share a wink this month then went to the cemetery for a few minutes.
When we got to the cemetary it was empty except for one man who was walking on the opposite side of the grounds- my Dad. I waved at him and he ran across the grass and wrapped me in his arms. I was surprised to see him there and asked how often he stopped by. He said "Oh, a couple of times a week. I like to check on Caleb and my parents...
I had no idea.
I was touched to tears to know that my dad was quietly watching over the people he loves.
Thanks Dad.
Our chance meeting touched me more than you will ever know.

I love you April.
so special
He has such a tender heart! It must have been so special to you to have him there and special to him as well. Nothing like a "chance" meeting.

What a sweet moment with your Dad.
