We made it out to my parents’ house for a short visit. We will be heading home tomorrow, but I am relishing the time I am getting to spend with them. The kids were excited at our arrival and it was wonderful getting lots of hugs and “I love you’s!” C had made me a bunch of small presents, (pictures she had colored  and a necklace she made.) I wasn’t even completely in the door when she grabbed my hand and dragged me into the living room to present me with my gifts. She beamed as I handled each one, and likewise I gushed at each drawing and craft.

It was wonderful holding my babies in my arms again. I know, it was less than 48 hours, but it seemed like so much more!
