It had been a day of mixed feelings. The girls were beside themselves with excitement about arriving home. They were looking forward to their beds, iPods, friends, couch, TV - the modern world.
Andrew and I were excited about home too, well some of the things about home. Bed, shower, oven, family, friends - perhaps we too were looking forward to a bit of the modern world. But all that aside we were so keenly aware of what 'coming home' symblised. The end of our precious family time, the end of this adventure, the end of endless days of following our instincts - no clock or schedule to speak of.
We both realise that we have been so fortunate to have had the time away, we really did check out on our former lives, this adventure was truly a once in a life time opportunity for our family. A time that will be one of the most important parts of all our lives.
So that's it...thanks for reading...I hope you enjoyed the journey too!!
