During our first full day at home in weeks we were actually trapped there. The Swede had to take our one car (Linda has been using the other in exchange for cat sitting while we've been on our travels) to the lake to help fish a sunken boat out of the fishing club harbor. It was an all-day ordeal and Jamie and I were getting a case of cabin fever right around the time Jamie's best friend from school came around the corner on his trike with his mom. The boys were ecstatic, shrieking and waving their arms and hopping up and down. I was so glad that they remembered and were enthusiastic over one another after a month apart. They played football and golf and threw things and rolled around in the yard while we moms chatted it up and reminisced about how tiny they were when they met almost a year ago. This buddy popping up just at the right time is what being home is all about.
