A hole in my sail!!!!

For the most part my move to California has been pretty good. We miss friends, family and the other familiarities from home. It wasn't until the past week that some of my realizations that we have moved far away from everyone. I had a day of sadness and for anyone that knows me I dont come to tears very often. So spending a day getting very teary over some of the littlest things was very strange for me.  Coming to the realization that I am so far away from  the people who mean the most to me and when I know they need me or I need them and we are not able to just pop over for a hug or chat.  I am glad to say it was only a day and one day of crying made a much better week.


As for Liam we have spent the last few months keeping to himself and desperately missing all the people we have left behind. We has started to open up at school and is playing with other kids there but has not made any real connections with any kids at school. Derek and I decided that we could not watch our little boy continue to be sad anymore. We managed to surprise him with a puppy this week. He is an all white Maltese puppy and Liam is in love. He is this tiny little fire ball who loves liam to death.  We have only had him for a week and love all the smiles and giggles I have heard over the past week. I have to admit I have enjoyed having the dog around as well it gets a little boring around here during the day.

We do have some visitors planned for October. My parents are coming for their first visit to California. Liam gets a week off in October so what a great time for a visit. We are going to try and get out there and check out a few new places.
