Just being us

The best part about R&R was realizing that even though months and months had passed, not much had changed. When Erick joined us, it was just as if he had always been there.

It was right.

It felt the way we are supposed to feel. Complete.

Each day together was special. Even the days where it didn't seem like we did much. On this day, we drove to Cabella's then ate out at a fast food place. We found a play area for the kids. It was a good, good day:

that is a full two knuckles deep, pretty impressive. Mad skills i am developing this deployment.

Tera said...

Ewww! It is not that deep. Just the finger tip. But you are right Erick, that would be impressive!

It's funny that we are discussing a finger up your nose. Ha!
