This truly made me smile!! He had so many invitations in his pocket, I hope everyone invited was able to attend, because that spread looked amazing! You could tell he put in a lot of effort. I wish I had a neighbour like that. 🥺

I had to stop watching because I was bawling and I’m sick. So incredibly sweet and beautiful in a time where everything is so darn ugly.

I’m going to blame the baby I’m growing for my crying. I just adore Doug.

Congratulations and feel better. I haven’t grown a baby in 25 years and still cried

Thank you! Hopefully some day my husband and I can be the Doug’s of our neighborhood when we can buy a house.
