Family is whole again!

Monday morning at the crack of dawn we went to the airport to pick up the hubby, and we haven't quit smiling since then. It's so great to have him home again, and the kids and i have been klingon's since he got home. Not that he has minded. well, except that first evening with the jet lag. :) That's slowed down a bit, and he's almost his old self again. I think my ability to function independently was a bit of a shock to him. Well, function with a little help , well alot, from his friends, and mine. Uncle Bob and Paulie were lifesavers, on more than one occasion. Bob was a hero for the kids and I, and we love him to pieces for that. Withut Paulie we wouldn't have the cool air, or that fabulouso patio, and of course our favorite baby :) I don't know how he expected the house to look, but he was surprised it was still clean and standing. No honey, the kids don't draw on the walls and windows, or eat off the floor when you are away...
So now the new journey begins, please get my prozac and tums ready, i will need them. We are getting set to return overseas. Hubby has an amazing offer, and an opportunity to work with some old co-workers, they referred to themselves as the dream team at the hospital where they were working together. The kids and wives are all going with them. So we already know them, and are all so excited. We just need to fast-forward through the next few weeks. I hate moving, i hate packing. I think i am going to really hate packing with the hubby. Somehow i don't think he will see the importance of that fabulous little knick-knack from kirklands, thati just can't live without... of course multiply it times 100 and he really won't get it :) The kids are excited to return to their world travels, and i am so glad we can give them this chance. The world is such an amazing place, and the kids will get to know kids from all over. I am so glad they will get to grow up with their eyes open to all the gifts other cultures can offer one another.
So, off to hug my amazing husband, and enjoy every second with him. That is until we have to pack....yuck, yuck, yuck.
