I am feeling happy and sad at the same time. I am so grateful that I traveled last week close enough to Sunnyvale that I got to see Tuan, Lily and the girls. But now I am a little sad b/c I am looking through my pictures and those he gave me and I miss them. A lot. I wish I lived within driving distance to more family. As I am getting older, I miss being closer. I guess I also wish I could be closer to all my nieces and nephews while they are still young so I can know them better. We have nieces and nephews all over, California, Connecticut, Florida, North Carolina and luckily 3 nephews and 1 niece here in Texas.
One of my favorite moments last week was getting out of the car and being clobbered by the girls for hugs. Oh my gosh, I nearly balled. It was so, so wonderful to see them that I can't even describe the feeling. I was surprised by the intensity. And Lily was so wonderful to me and cooked so that we didn't have to go out. After three weeks of travel, I'm getting tired of eating healthily and creatively at restaurants. It was great to eat at their house. The seafood feast was awesome! (The shrimp bowl may look low in supply as I had already munched quite a few before I thought to take pictures. LOL)

Nothing like family to charge your batteries.
