Love my roots

Head on over to Letters to a Parent for our first submission from a father--in fact, fittingly, it's by my own dad. His piece on parenting/raising trees ("a gentle word of counsel to you who would raise trees") is spot-on, inspiring, and, I think, very Robert Frostish. I think you'll love it.

{And thanks, Dad, for sharing it with me & allowing me to share it with others. Now if I can just figure out if I am the oak, the willow, or the maple...}

Loved this! I noticed you are from Logan as well. Such a small world!

Annie, what an incredible letter! As I read the letter, thoughts of your Dad, your house, ....and then thoughts of my Dad.....images of trees in the Providence cemetary, near the farm....you were there. I honestly can't remember the last time (years) that I felt so deeply what I miss about having a Father. Thank you for this, and please thank your Father for me.
