boston sojourn
in celebration of aidan's first fall break, we all took a little vacation...not necessarily together, but we did all get a much needed rest. the boys were graciously received by their nana for a few days of some nice grandparent love while mark and i caught a flight to boston to visit the pierce's.
it is always strange to step outside of this little life that we have carefully prepared at home and open up to a new city and old friends. yesterday, a local friend mentioned that walking into someone else's home and engaging in conversation entails making yourself vulnerable enough for them to get a brief glimpse into your life. i would say that this is true. initially, it can be a bit uncomfortable, but how amazing it is to learn more of another person's joys and struggles as well as to be known.
all of that to say...thank you, thank you matt and laurie for your hospitality and interest in our family. you have seen us through dating, marriage, children, new jobs, new homes and all of the wonderful and challenging aspects of each.
we love you!
