¿Que tiene Robinson que me encanta como escribe?

^”I don’t know what to do about it. Jesus never had to be old.”^

That’s funny and sad at the same time…

The father is dying…

^It may have been the saddest day of her life, one of the saddest of his. And yet, all in all, it wasn’t a bad day.^

^So Glory would live out her life in a place all the rest of them called home, a place they would mean to return to more often than they did.^

That’s so sad 😢

^After a moment Jack said, “You don’t want me hanging around here. Reminding you of things you’d rather forget.” His voice was still barely more than a whisper.

“I never forget them. Hard as I try. They’re my life.” He looked up at his son. “And so are you.”^

^Her father hung his head. “All of them call it home, but they never stay.”^

^Maybe getting what you deserve is the saddest thing in the world.^

^How to announce the return of comfort and well-being except by cooking something fragrant. That is what her mother always did. After every calamity of any significance she would fill the atmosphere of the house with the smell of cinnamon rolls or brownies, or with chicken and dumplings, and it would mean, This house has a soul that loves us all, no matter what.^
