We were so sick... I think we were both ready to pass out when Tina took this hilarious picture (I love it).
I don't know how to do things better when you live far away. Maybe we should just assume we're going to get sick from the plane ride and go out a few days earlier? I am so ashamed of how overwhelmed and complainy I was, but I was unprepared for how much work it is when you get the little guy out of his routine. Or maybe I was prepared for that, but not prepared to take this on while having such a bad cold? Or maybe I could have handled all that, but couldn't put up with the weirdo from Art's parents church, losing my wallet on the plane, people worrying about Omar being too cold when it's 50 degrees outside, etc. etc. I think it was worth it once Omar got better and was able to play with his cousins. Still, I think Art put it best when he said that he was 'so relieved to be home, even if it is Boston.'
oh lisa!! it happens to everyone!! you took it all in stride and made it look good. You missed all of us being whiny and baby when we got all sick, and we were at home! Next time it WILL be easier- he won't be 7 months old, he won't be teething, and we won't be crazy. Oh wait, yes we will.
