A Little Catch Up

Monica and the kids left Saint Lucia for a month in the States on November 22nd  It is the longest we have ever been apart. They all really enjoyed the time they had with family. They each spent time staying my parents, Monica’s aunt, and her grandmother. They also stayed a few days with best friends. The last week and a half, Monica and I were both wishing that we had booked the trip for only three weeks rather than four. They were all supposed to return on December the 22nd. Monica, Charity, Grace, and Benjamin were on buddy passes. After all seven finally boarded the plane, the four of them were asked to get back off due to lack of seats. It was good to see the three that did come in, but I sure did miss my wife! Monica and the other children finally flew in on Christmas day. Picking her up at the airport was the best Christmas present I have received in many years! I am glad we are all together again, and I am very thankful to have a wife and children that are more at home here on the field than in the States
