Show Notes

I chose this story because I wanted something to lift our spirits. It’s a touching story about learning that life isn’t just about ‘activity’; something those of us who are sheltering are being forced to realize. The most important things in life are found in the heart and the home, not in all that activity. And I love that at the end of the story there is a sweet nod to Grandparents. Enjoy!
