We Are Here

We left The Toronto Airport July 1st at 6:55 pm and landed at San Francisco Airport at 9:25pm. Well let me tell you it has been a long time since I have been in an airplane, 19 years to be exact.  I remember there being a lot more leg room.  I had it ok because there was no one in the seat ahead of me.  Poor Derek had a girl almost in his lap the whole time and to top it all off  his head phone jack only half worked.  Liam was amazing on the flight.  He got to be the cream to our Oreo is what I told him. He sat in the middle. He loved the touch screen tv in front of him and spent most of the flight playing with it.  It was really cute because he would forget he had headphones on and would talk to you loud from time to time.  The saddest part of my day was after we landed and we were in the car driving away from the airport and all of a sudden Liam starts to cry and say it is real now, referring to the fact that it has finally sunk in that it was all really happening but I will leave that for Liam to talk about when he is ready.  I know for me it has not totally sunk in since we are spending the next month in a hotel on a somewhat mini vacation.  I know for me it is really gonna hit me when I really need a friend and some help and all of you are 2500 miles in the wrong direction.

Sending everyone big hugs from sunny California
