I was blessed with two father-in-laws.
They were very different: Bob always looked at the bright side of life and Joe—not so much.
Joe did have some wisdom, and he provided me with one of my favorite quotes that is applicable for Rich and I today.
Joe told me once,
We’re waiting for a couple of phone calls, and we need to be patient because, as much as we’d like to, we can’t make the phone ring.


Hope it rings soon! Hugs!
It didn’t ring until I called them back again and again and again…
My patience wore out! 🙂
Hope the calls turned out the way you wanted?!
I love the last photo. That child looks like it is trying to make it ring with the power of its wishes…
Been there. Done that. 🙂
