“Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.” -Charles Swindoll

We got back from Hawaii last week and I came back having learned a very important lesson. Vacations are entirely different with kids. Now that Jude can talk a lot more and can tell us exactly what he wants and who he wants, it’s harder to find solitude during trips with the family. At least I squeezed in a book and a half and had a chance to watch Jude’s face light up at the sight of the ocean each day.

For you my child, mommy will play ping pong all day and share all my favorite foods with you. Love you, Juju and that smile you shine upon us with each day that we have you.
