While we were away, I both missed and did not miss little David. On the flight down, every baby caught my attention and I was so aware of the luxury of travelling without worrying about how to fit David's naps or meals or diaper changes into the schedule. While we were there, I was mostly fancy free and not missing him or worrying about him too much... unless someone brought it up. It was good to be able to use my spanish skills and be helpful outside the context of mothering. It was also good to have adventures and make memories and reconnect with Lucas. Then on the trip back, our flights were delayed and we ended up spending another night away from home. My arms were really aching for my little guy.

When we came to Grandma Berni and Grandpa Karl's house to pick David up, I was a little nervous that he would be mad at us for leaving or have forgotten about us. We were so glad to find our little man happy to see us, healthy and well cared for, and proud to show off his new skills of pulling up, cruising, and waving. He had a great time while we were gone, but didn't forget about us.
