Visitors

There is light at the end of the tunnel.......



We are in shock.....



........after 3 years and 4 months........



We are going to have visiors........the beds have been made.....the room looks like a hotel (and includes fire evacuations, evacuations, earthquake drills, breakfast menus etc)......
Someone is about to turn 40. He's having a party and of all the people he wanted at his party.....

Grandma and Grandpa are it (your right side - that's Nan on the left (deceased)).
We don't mind our own space......

But we are ready for visitors.....we will make them feel welcome.
Because our little family would love to show their extended family that they really are okay over here in this "scary" (not so much) place.

I am so excited for you - this is great news.
Having visitors is your chance to show the whole crazy to some, but wonderful reason we all live overseas. It enables appreciation and understanding...something that without our families seeing it 'in the real' is normally just the white elephant in the room...usually better to not discuss at all. After they've seen it in the flesh, your relationships will be so much stronger. Or at least, that's how it has been for me!
Enjoy it all.
My Dad is coming at the end of the month. I can't wait!
Over 3 years has been too long...you must be so excited!
