uptight? check
snippy? check
lost things? check
shoes in middle of floor? check
sometimes uncomfortable with other person’s behavior in public? check
8 things that don’t fit in the carry-on? check
chug bottle of water at gate so security doesn’t confiscate favorite plastic bottle? check

STILL EXCITED ABOUT THE JOURNEY? DOUBLE CHECK!!!

Life changes in so MANY ways, perspective is tilted in less tangible ways. It’s our habits that follow us through it all. Bravo!

I have enjoyed all of your posts so much, Your boys have learned so much and grown so much during this year….what’s a few wet towels and sloppy handwriting??? What wonderful parents you and Jim are, I am so impressed!

I wonder how the predictability of life back here (you mean today we basically do the same thing as yesterday? and all in ENGLISH?) will strike you in your year-long earned traveler’s skin…but it’s what is inside that makes the quality of one’s day mostly, no? And I think that will DELIGHT you, as a person, and as a family. Can’t wait to watch! We are counting the days for your return!

Yes….we shared our mutual “messiness” of life but….. I saw your boys eyeballs when they greeted me, I saw the honor they gave to their parents when celebrating birthdays, I heard thank yous and pleases and we have never had so much wonderful laughter and joy around our dinner table. I MISS YOU!!…..all of you!
