Back Home Safe

Well, my boys made it home safe from Scotland on Monday. They had a wonderful time and had lots of stories to tell of their special time. It is such a blessing to be able to share such a unique cultural experience with our children. Andrew got to wear a kilt to a wedding with George and although he wasn't to excited about wearing a "skirt" as he called it, he sure did look handsome! He was proud to match his daddy. I am once again so thankful for the father George is to our children. There aren't a whole lot of dads that would be willing to have a 5 year old tag along on a 9 hour plane ride and all that comes with a vacation with a preschooler! But George was so excited to make the trip with Andrew and share some special bonding time together. And Andrew is at an age that he'll remember the time he spent all by himself with his daddy.

The Lord blessed me here at home too. 2 of my dear friends came to visit and filled all of my time up with late nights and lots of fun so I wouldn't sulk about missing my boys. We had a blast and it gave me time to spend with Abby and Connor too. I am so glad to have our family back together again. Next year, Lord willing, we will all go to Scotland as a family and George and I will steal some time away together to Italy to celebrate our 10th anniversary!

Love to all, Donna
