115 days after leaving for Florida I finally made it home!! So nice to hang with the gilrs on our home turf. We did have a nice visit in Norfolk when the boat stopped there and the gilrs came up for a couple days. We spent some time cruising around Portsmouth and taking walks with Lily. Wendy was even able to relax with some adults and have a cocktail. Lily and I took a chance and had bathtime together (in a very loud shower) and she showed me that she trusts me by tucking her little head into my chest when she was scared, what a moment.
Got to Beaufort and made a b-line for home. Woke up the next day to a gloriously rainy day that gave us all the excuse to lay around and catch up and play with the Lilzers and Bindi. Wendy and I spent quiet evenings talking and looking online for flight to NZ with great success, so they are on their way November 17th. Got lucky and caught some flawless pumping surf and got to hit the water with Wendy the next day to a sunny beach day. Caught up with Chip, Tammy, Farmer and Rachel over dinner one night. Mowed the lawn and weeded the garden a little also.
Returned to the boat feeling rejuvinated and ready for another stint away from my loves. Wendy is probably breathing a sigh of relief now that their is only one child to look after!! Just kidding baby you are unbelievable and let it be said here that a mothers job is without a doubt the hardest one in the world, especially when you are doing it on your own.
