We are home. Maddie was really really good for both of our flights back and it was pretty uneventful although we had full flights and both of the people we sat next to seemed to have issues with kids and gave me mean looks anytime Maddie made even the smallest noise. And she was the best she has ever been on these flights, so those people had NO patience with kids!! It was so nice to see Dan and Charlotte at the airport. Charlotte smiled at me right away but kept looking at me like "where have you been," but she got over it and I enjoyed snuggling with her while I rocked to to sleep.....I missed that! I think that Dan missed me because he cleaned the house, did laundry, went grocery shopping and washed and cleaned out my car!! What a sweet men!
I'm glad to be home but I'm also sad. I so wish that I lived closer to my family. I miss them so much and being with them reminds me of exactly how much. Maddie had such an amazing time with her grandma and papa and with her cousins. North Carolina feels like home to me now and it is for sure my kids' home, but I feel so lonely without my family and my great friends. I wish there was a middle ground where I could have both. My mom is coming out in April and again in May for Charlotte's birthday. I guess I will just have to wait till then, but I'm going to start trying to figure out ways to make more trips out to CA.....if only I didn't have to deal with airplanes.....I wish I could just say beam me up scotty and appear. Sigh.
More vacation blogs to come, and some pretty fantastic cousin pics. Stay tuned!
