saying goodbye

I dropped my sister and her family off at the airport this afternoon, after a 24-hour visit with them. They are on their way to New Zealand for six months. Thankfully we’ll be seeing them again in three months, in NZ, but I always find it hard to say goodbye to her. I really wish she lived in the same city as me. There’s been many a day where I’ve wanted to just drop by and say hi.

Elliot and his cousin Hugh got along well, as usual. They seem to really enjoy each other’s company. I hope they continue to have a strong connection as they get older.

So I’m feeling a bit blue right now. Greg is on his way back to the island and I’m staying over on the mainland one more night so I can visit with some friends tomorrow morning. The kids and I will head back to the island tomorrow afternoon. It’s been nice to be away, but it’ll also be good to get back home.
