Matt, myself and the boys have recently been on a quick trip back to visit my Queensland family. Thankfully we were both able to take some time off work to get away (thanks Ma Ma and Pa!!), I'd only been back at work two weeks before we'd left - and now that I'm back I didn't realise how much I'd needed to get away. Even though the trip was rushed, driving all over, visiting here and there, exhausting for some - it has refreshed me. I guess you really can't put a value on what touching base with your own family can do for you. I am one blessed chick - especially that I can return to be surrounded by another wonderful family.
It was disappointing that I didn't get to spend a lot of time visiting friends as I have tried to do in the past, but despite this I have to say the most rewarding part of the trip was that Jack and Will really got to know mum and dad a lot more - and showed an instant bond with them instead of the usual 'resistance' that are very characteristic of my boys. Even when we saw Em and Tony they knew who they were. Amazing how lucky we are with technology that we can keep updated and in touch so much more effectively than in the past.
Happy days.
Anyway, after reading a few friends goals for the year, I decided I should do the same, not new years resolutions at all, simply a few goals to work on - so I'm off to work on it, and if I'm successful I'll post it for all to see....
