September has been ridiculously busy! But sometimes it's good to be busy, if being busy includes a visit from my family! This was the first time my mom and my sister who had just moved back from NY came to visit. We did all the touristy things. I think I've been on the Space Needle about 5 times now? And it will definitely be my last (I hope). Now that everyone has visited, I've made it pretty clear that I am done with all things touristy!
The weekend was really a great one though. I haven't seen my mom much this year. Even when I visit home, she has to work a lot, so it was just nice to have her vacationing up here. She's the one thing I miss most about California. (I am, and will always be, a mama's girl) ut she's very happy for me and has given me her blessings to pursue love and to reach for my dreams. Which I am beyond thankful for. She is the fuel to my fire when I write, the reason to keep on going when I feel like I can't go any longer. She is my muse, she is everything I am. I miss her already. If you are blessed to see your parents on a daily basis. Be grateful. We never know how much time we have left to spend with our loved ones.
I don't live anywhere very touristy. :P
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a great weekend!! I don't see my mom too often, but I see my sister almost everyday. I haven't gotten sick of her in a awhile. :)
Sounds like your mother and you have a wonderful relationship! After living half a world apart, my mother moved with a 2 hour distance this summer. It's nice to have the chance to see her more often.
ReplyDeleteMoms are the best. I live for mine. She sacrificed everything for her children. She is my favorite person :) I can't explain how much I love her.
ReplyDeleteGreat family photo at Chihuly! Everyone is looking amazing and your sis has the pregnancy "glow!" Love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! It was definitely a pleasant time seeing her!
