Home at Last!

So my day started with waking up at 5am in the morning to finish packing up last minute things in my house and I was on the road by 6am heading southbound towards Palm Beach. Driving like a mad horse and downing my redbull like I haven't had a drink in months I was home in record time. It wasn't till I was home I realized how good it felt to be back at a place so familiar. With my sister's running towards me, and hugging me in greeting, and my dog clawing away at my legs wanting some of the attention I thought to myself 2 years ago when I was graduating Highschool what was it exactly that I wanted to get away from? When you're 18 the only thing I could think of was how much I can't wait to be on my own and not have to be under my parents rules and regulations and just be able to be so called "free". It isn't till you're older you realize how fortunate you were living at your parents house not having to worry about real world problems and how carefree you were. In college , yes, we have are crazy wild nights but our days are filled with stress from classes to exams to running low on groceries. Its when we go home to our mom babying us and cooking for us and wanting to do our laundry do we realize how much love our family really has for us and how much we miss it. I think thats why I love coming home its sort of like my vacation from being an adult. and that makes me SMILE.

Just the teeny tiny gift waiting on my bed when I got home, isn't my mom just Amazinggg!
