My best friends, James Ellsworth Mitchell.

A few months ago my dad’s treasured radio was fried by water damage from a leak in our house ceiling. My dad is a simple guy, with uniformed activities - Blue denim jeans, long sleeve thermal shirt, gold hoop earring (in his left ear), wine and Andrea Bocelli playing from his favorite radio. For a man that offers a keen eye to love and care, a man that gives everything to everyone, it was beautiful to see him feel the attention reciprocated. My father spent Christmas day ensuring all bellies were full of good food, taking care of his last brother alive and helping me remember why he’s my number one. Thankful for these moments. Here’s video and photos of my favorite, favorite guy.
