“Upstairs Dad,” we’d sigh. When he found her he’d scoop her up into a sweet hug and [...]

We all have one.
The man we let go… and shouldn’t have.
Mine is in South Korea. He moved there after we broke up and hasn’t come back since, aside from a few random visits. Once we met in Amsterdam - both of us are avid travelers - and once we met in Cleveland when he was [...]
