A week has passed since we got here. Thankfully, Maggie and I are over the jet lag. I have emptied our luggages and organized our stuff in the closet. I think I am ready to be a housewife/stay-at-home mommy again.
Maggie’s Dad has “forced” me to drive. Although this town is not new to me, I have yet to regain the confidence. So whenever he tells me that I need to drive to this and that, I would find myself repeatedly checking and studying googlemaps no matter how easy the route looks. Sigh.
Maggie loves it here and tells her Lola back in the Philippines that she doesn’t want to go back there. She also added that she would only if her Daddy comes with us.
Dear Maggie,
We’re here… back in the arms of your Daddy! Wishes do come true!
The past days though were horrible because of jet lag. We’d find ourselves snacking on crackers and milk, watching Wonder Pets and Barney and Dora, and playing all the games in your iPad in the wee hours of the morning. And then, we’d sleep from 10AM to 5PM! I don’t like it. You and I have been occasionally cranky, and your poor Dad patiently deals with that.
I am glad that despite the distance for almost two years, you’ve remained close to your Dad. He never became a stranger to you. When you first saw him at the airport, you ran to him and hugged him real tight. That really melted my heart (and his, too). You are a sweetie, Maggie!
With all my love,
Mommy
I will be taking photos of them together again. Very very soon.
Just dropping by to thank the universe for the wonderful gift of motherhood. :)
