I made it home! After an awesome weekend with friends, food, and crafting, I can honestly say that I am SO happy to be home! I loved being at camp, hanging out with my friends, making new friends, eating delicious food, getting some crocheting done, and staying up way too late. The weekend away was exactly as I pictured. I was still in touch with my friend and family, and received pictures of the kids and updates on what everyone was doing. Brady worked hard, as you probably read, at insulating the basement, taking the kids out a bit, and keeping everyone happy and alive.
Arriving home was the icing on the cake for me. Coming up the stairs from the entrance, I was greeted by each kid individually. I was given warm hugs and smooshy kisses. I’m rarely missed by my kids, thanks to my amazing life circumstance of staying home with them. So being missed is a real treat. That being said, they were still running around, happy, doing their own things.
Once I had said my hellos, we turned on some new music that was released while I was gone. While we were listening to it, Brady brought my stuff up to our room and discovered a wakeful baby. And as if my heart wasn’t happy enough to see her, she also missed me. And that was awesome.
Brady handed her to me, and she gave me a big smile! I hugged her, and she lay on my chest, unmoving, totally content, for a looooong time. It. Was. Awesome. She eventually shifted to a “cheek to cheek” snuggle, which was equally as delicious. Don’t get me wrong. I know they all missed me somewhat, but Wavy wanted to rest with me, which felt amazing and warm and welcoming.
It was a warmer reception than I was expecting. It feels great to be loved and missed. It was good to be away, but its good to be home.
Glad yoù re back safe and had a great time away!! Homecoming is the best!! You are loved!!!🤩💓
