This good bye has been coming for a few months now and today it became reality. One last day of playing hard with friends my children shared the last eight (give or take) years with (or a bit less for those born more recently :D). Anouk and Anika are the definition of "best friends forever". Their bond is magical and cannot be denied by anyone who has been lucky enough to spend time with them. Anikas mother, Kirsten (my dear, dear friend, lucky me!) and I have been plotting to keep this fairytale of a friendship alive even though they/we will be separated by an ocean. Wish us luck! Today my heart broke just a little bit for my sweet Anouk but also for myself. For all those years I have shared motherhood, exile and my everyday craziness with Kirsten. I will miss her terribly.Here's to Skype, the Internet, cheap international phone plans and traveling the world!

sweet! :o)
I kind of can't believe it. At least it is going to be SPRING soon and we might be distracted by blossoms and sunshine. Imagine if it was the start of winter!
True. Even though today feels like the end of the world with all that dust blowing outside my window.
