Going home

The boys and I are a tad homesick, so we are headed home for a long weekend.

Sometimes it is good to just be honest and accept things the way they are. I can tell the boys over and over again about great things that are here in Chapel Hill.

But the bottom line is they miss friends. They miss home.

And this Mama knew that I couldn’t argue with that. I felt the same.

So I texted Andy- boys had a long weekend coming up- I was headed to Ohio.

He said, “ok, me too” and he booked a flight for a shorter stay that didn’t mess with his work.

Life, being a Mama, knowing when to give and when to take…. it’s not an easy job.

And I won’t lie…..

I miss home. I miss Ohio.

North Carolina is wonderful. It really is. It’s not that.

So…. We are headed home for a few days. One of our BFF’s is turning 40. And we are going home to celebrate.

Because that is what life is about.

I have no great pics to relate to this post- so here ya go

She’s crazy, right? Here are two great recent Eva stories.

– she told Blake to bite her, and when he did (a light nibble) she put him in time out. Can you tell my girly has been in time-out for biting???

-today she said, “do you want me to clean my room?” I said yes. And she said, “I will clean my room, but you have to pay me!”

I will be blogging iPhone style for the next week or so.

    Oooh I can relate to the missing friends, my boys miss their neighborhood buddies so much and my littlest asks to go back which is so hard to hear. I just keep praying for new friends here. Moving is hard and always an adjustment. I hope you had a wonderful time back in Ohio!
