Dear friend,
My Dad is leaving next week. So this week and next week is going to be our last opportunity to spend time together. I don't even know if I will be able to see him again. Once he's back in Cuba it will feel like he's in another planet, that's how hard the communication with the island is. I am making lots of videos with my Dad so I can watch them after he leaves and imagine that he's very close to us. My Dad is only 73, I hope that he can live to be a hundred and fifty! :)
I will be back here on Friday, April 16. I can't wait! Because I have a great surprise for you. I have been working on it for a while Yay!!!! I am so excited!!!
Can you guess what my surprise is????
The picture above is just a little advance :o
See you soon!!
Elsita :)









I think I know what it is!!! I can't wait!
Enjoy your time with your dad. I know it will be hard to see him go. Sending you a big big hug.

Enjoy your time with your dad as much as you can. Make as many pictures, movies and let him tell and write so you have something to hold on to when he flies back home.
A big hug for all of you.
Elizabeth

I really do hope you'll be able to see your dad again. But now you'll have so many fantastic memories of his visit to nourish you. Now you have connected with him again I don't think any amount of physical distance will ever be able to really seperate you. You'll always be in each other hearts and thoughts no matter what! :0) Big hugs, xxxx

I miss my father so very much.
Every moment you spend together , spend it like it is your first and last and every moment in between.
Your love is so strong it will survive the physical separation.
Your little glimpse is so pretty.
Lots of love dear friend.
xxoo

I just got home from a fun little vacation and was happily surprised when I spotted some Elsita bookmarks! I was in Hong Kong at a Paper One store when I spotted them...they are absolutely gorgeous!!! Your style is unmistakably unique...the profile on your paper cut faces are so delicate. I can only how cute this little doll's face is!!!

Is it a cute little Doll?
God Bless You and Yours!!!

You have had such a blessing-filled time...getting to finally 'know' your father as two adults.
I pray that you will have many more chances to re-connect over the years, and I know that he will hold this visit (and you!) close in his heart when he returns home. You are a loving daughter and wonderful person.
Enjoy every remaining moment!! Hugs--

Cherish every moment and take lots of pictures with the children. It might be a bit late - but have you seen those books that prompt questions for leaving history for your grandchildren - that could be a fun lasting thing to do these last couple of weeks. Hugs to each of you - enjoy this special time.

Well done visit, Elsita. I've loved hearing about your reunion with your Dad. I bet the house seem alittle empty without him, BUT he'll leave you with a full heart and that is grand.

阿彌陀佛 無相佈施
不要吃五辛(葷菜,在古代宗教指的是一些食用後會影響性情、慾望的植
物,主要有五種葷菜,合稱五葷,佛家與道家所指有異。
近代則訛稱含有動物性成分的餐飲食物為「葷菜」,事實上這在古代是稱
之為腥。所謂「葷腥」即這兩類的合稱。 葷菜
維基百科,自由的百科全書
(重定向自五辛) 佛家五葷
在佛家另稱為五辛,五種辛味之菜。根據《楞嚴經》記載,佛家五葷為大
蒜、小蒜、興渠、慈蔥、茖蔥;五葷生啖增恚,使人易怒;熟食發淫,令
人多慾。[1]
《本草備要》註解云:「慈蔥,冬蔥也;茖蔥,山蔥也;興渠,西域菜,云
即中國之荽。」
興渠另說為洋蔥。) 肉 蛋 奶?!

Hola Elsa: estoy segura que la vida te tiene más encuentros con tu papá, y que serán tan felices como los que estas viviendo ahora. Pero mientras lo lleves en el recuerdo, el siempre vivirá contigo. Suerta para el futuro de ambos.
