We had a great time with Mom and Dad. Mom left last Monday, a week ago, but I was too sad to do a blog entry. The house seemed lonely even with 3 children keeping me running in all directions. We had so much fun even if we were doing the daily routine of feeding children, bathing children, reading to them, etc. Mom was here for an entire 2 weeks whereas Dad could only stay for 1. We packed a good bit in the time they were here, though. Mom and Dad had some days to themselves and visited Windsor and Eton one day as well as taking the overnight train to Scotland. Unfortunately Mom got her wallet stolen in Edinburgh, but it has since been found and mailed back to GA. We drove to Bath and saw Bath Abbey and visited the Roman Baths. I was surprised how much Kate and Harry enjoyed. There is an audio tour specifically for children and they listened to it the entire time much to my surprise. We did a drive by Stonehenge so Dad could get a photo.
The time with my parents, of course, flew by and when I took Mom to the airport last Monday I was reminded just how far away we are. Living in VA while the rest of my family was 10 driving hours away in GA was tough, but now it's a 10 hour flight. I'm hoping our next move will take us closer.
