"Can I see Ming Ming every day?"


Airplane ride... He wanted to sit in the back, but had I known I would have let him sit in the front to control the plane. 

His first roller coaster ride! Woohoo! He said he didn't want to go on, I asked him to try it. He looked terrified and I was wondering if I made a bad decision making him do something that would scare him, but he loved it! This seems to be the norm for him, I guess. When he looks like he's horrified and ready to burst into tears, actually he's enjoying himself. How odd. Glad he likes roller coasters, 'cuz so does Mama... even at a young age when my friends were freaking out crying. 

Train ride...

"How we gonna get down?"

Mmm... churro, thanks Auntie!

Train ride again...

Look at the huge box of Thomas'. The most I've ever seen all piled in a box, all Thomas.

The boys played while we talked. So long that we didn't have time for lunch together. Oops! 

One last ride before we leave, I lost count after the fifth time on this ride. 
I wish we could have spent the whole day together and a whole lot more time together in general. At a time in my life where I feel so much disconnect with people, we really connected. It makes me sad to see them go. I think the boys will miss each other too. If only we lived closer. Why can't things work out the way you want them to? Why can't I have all my close friends as neighbors? I guess that's just the way God stretches us, keeping friendships alive through long distance, making new friendships, and adjusting.
