It is so bittersweet! We are so so so excited to get over to Japan to see DJ, but we are not looking forward to the many good-byes we have to say before we get there. Not only do we have to say good-bye to our friends and family but we have to say good-bye to all of the fun things we have been doing lately. We have to say good-bye to our weekly fun My Gym class, playing outside in the grass (which is hard to find in Japan), riding around in our fun push toys, playing with our cousins, and going to Grammy and Grampy's "restaurant" for dinner :) We also have to say good-bye to our brand new home with our comfy beds, high counters, big yards, and space to move around in that we will miss so much. We have to say good-bye to the convenience of having a local Target, a place to pick up normal food to eat when we are running short on time, being able to find what you need at the grocery store, and most of all ENGLISH!!! If we didn't have the excitement of seeing DJ, I would have a seriously hard time getting on that airplane. I don't know how DJ does it every year. He has nothing to look forward to seeing when he has to say his good-byes :( He leaves everything behind and has no one waiting for him when he gets there. Poor Guy!
So today we had to say good-bye to Nana and Papa!!! We are going to miss them so much :( It is weird to think that the next time they see the kids they will be so different. I know Tessa will miss getting spoiled and getting balloons all the time. But hopefully the time will go by fast. Today the kids played outside with Nana and Papa for hours. I think they all had a blast :)
Bye Nana and Papa! We will miss you and love you! We can't wait to see you when we get home.
xoxoxo
May you and the kids have a safe trip to Japan. I can't imagine how hard it is to be away from your hubby for a while and then once you are with him, your away from your family. You are an amazing woman. Take care and I look forwad to the blog posts on the adventures Japan brings this year. :)
