"If I don't find him now, then to hell with the new Year kiss, I'll spend it cooped up in my room," talking to myself I checked each and every room of our house looking for my dear husband.
"Where are you going? The countdown is about to begin," Lily, my dad's, a new best friend asked me. Although things aren't official yet and I am not sure if dad will ever make them official these two enjoy each other's company in a very platonic way and they both are fine with it.
They found each other in a time when they both craved some company other than their children and friends, next-door neighbors kind of thing. Their friendship bloomed over time, from giving each other home-cooked meals to sharing jams and marmalades recipes and bonding over the daycare they two became instant friends and I am more than happy for dad.
