After months of our family being very apart, we had a chance to enjoy a perfect vacation together. Those first few moments of seeing GB in person were shocking. Is it weird to be shocked by the touch of your husband's hand to yours? I had forgotten that he was a real person, not just a face and voice presented to me via Skype. I had also forgotten the pure joy that touch adds to a relationship. Walking through Waikiki holding his hand while the other pushed Max's stroller put a permanent smile on my face. Watching him help Max climb the ladders at the playground or wash Max's hair. It was so unreal in the best kind of way. I know I took these little things for granted while he was gone, but I know I will feel so blessed to watch these little things happen and have these moments when our family is together again.

After a long, long day of traveling Max and I hate to check out the beach. |
|
Checking out the sand! |
|
Late night at the airport (again), but waiting (not very patiently) for GB get to baggage claim. |
|
This was so strange and so amazing to see. My heart just melted. |
|
Not so awesome attempt at a family picture. |
|
Still checking each other out. |
I know I had been a little MIA and not blogged much, but honestly I didn't want to talk about our upcoming trip because I was afraid I would jinx it. Apparently I am superstitious. Who knew?
More to come...
