Late as always, I am. But a very, very happy birthday dear Vanadia (along with hugs, when big Al's not watching) and even happier times together with your incredible family! I know how hard the being away from your loved ones can be.
Today when sitting on the plane from Helsinki to Copenhagen, I listened to a mom and her baby giggle and play for the whole duration of the flight and I felt like flying back home to my lovely daughters right away. Seeing other kids of the same age as mine make me miss Liisa and Saara terribly. I don't want to be away from them, I want to go home!
Yet I'm stuck in here for the next three days. The weather is windy (of course) and though the sun is shining, it's fairly cool outside. And what's worst is that a pint of beer in a local pub costs $10 or more.
But other than whine, I just wanted to say, Vanadia - you're dear to me!
