AW: My family is amazing!!!

[fayeelle]

I've been back home for about the past week now to visit with the family after some recent health scares with a couple of them. Last time I was back here was 2 yrs ago since its sooooo expensive to fly across the country. I felt terrible thinking I wouldn't be able to see them while I was pregnant; especially my mom.

They have had a blast hanging out with me and rubbing all over this bellah of mine. And health wise this has been a good week especially for my grandma who was really concerning me a few weeks ago and the main reason for this trip on such short notice.

Well they have been sitting on top secret plans for the past couple weeks. I came home yesterday to a house full of some of my most special people and a surprise baby shower!!!! I hadn't seen some of these friends or family for nearly 5 years. OMG I was overwhelmed emotionally!

It was so, so special and I have never felt so loved. The selfish part of me was so happy because I haven't had any real friends where I live now. I've missed having people so close to my heart in my day to day life. But I'm also incredibly happy they were able to share this with me- for them ya know? Living so far away from everyone has been hard on us all.

Annnnnnd yay hormones that have made this non crier cry while writing this.

That's so nice. I'm so glad you were able to see all of them.

I love this thread. That is so amazing and sweet. Your family is awesome. I'm so happy you were able to celebrate with them. While I'm not across the country from them (well, not all of them, some we are) I know how hard it is to live in a different state and not have as many local bonds as home does.

This is so sweet, glad you had such a nice trip home.

That is so sweet! That is so kind and thoughtful of them, and I'm so glad you were able to celebrate with so many people who love you and are so excited for you. I'm also a bit transplanted right now and my family and close friends live on the other side of the country- so I completely understand.
