Thursday Thoughts: Missing Home!!

Every time I miss home, the first thing I do is look at our photos. It hasn't even been a year, yet since I left Philippines, but to me, it already feels like forever. I miss my family so much! I miss just spending time with them. True, there's no place like home. But, where I am at now is my new home - with my two precious boys and another one on the way. I can never complain. There is absolutely no reason to. And I have enough blessings to be grateful to God for.

Though missing home makes me sad, the fact that I am never away by heart is enough reason for me to still smile and face each brand new day with hopes that we will be together soon. Oh, I can't wait for us to go home so they can finally meet our boys. Everybody back home has been wanting to see us all, especially the kids now. I can't wait to take Skyler to the beach and let him get a tan!! [hahaha] Both my boys need to tan!! And me, too...

There's just so much I miss about home. Friends, food, beautiful places and beaches, and a lot more.

So, Philippines/Samar, see you again .. very soon!!

Here are some photos I would like to share. They're taken 2 nights before we left Philippines. Just a small family get-together.
