almost home again

thanx to the patience and kindness of my sweet SIL (rachelsmom), I am almost home. with mixed feelings.. my trip to my kids and grands IS my Christmas, all wrapped up in 2 weeks and 3 weekends. We have been doing this for 17 years now. should be easier. but the leaving them behind gets harder each time.

time with each & every one was wonderful. impossible to describe.
my eldest's daily life is in "search for a dull moment" and I absorb every non-dull moment 18 days until I am full to overflowing... and then I go home. f

fooey, fooey, fiddlesticks!
