I think we are in denial. Luke and Riley are officially back in the US, after a very long journey. Liam loved watching the kids jump rope outside with Riley and play catch with Luke. It was such a joy to have a bit of home here at our African home.
In fact Luke and I were saying we had never ever spent this much time together. Because we lived so close to Branson, we would never sleep over at Holidays and special occasions like other out of town family would do sometimes. Same with them, they live 30 minutes away, so it is a little easier to just go home to sleep. We had some great quality time with Riley and Luke that we will treasure always. Liam was also able to bond with them and become completely comfortable. Luke swears that Liam even said his name! They are pals now.
Thank you guys for coming halfway through our time here. It was wonderful timing for us. Having the opportunity to view Africa through Riley's eyes was a joy as well. We love you guys and miss you!
And we miss ALL of our family! Love and hugs to you all!

I love the pics with my boys sticking out their tongues and Liam looking dreamy out the window missing his buddy Luke and Riley's buoyance. When I read the mystery of the lost shoe, the first place I thought of looking was the toliet. We learned to close the door when the boys were small. It looks like someone is always in there but it is easier than fishing things out!
