Family visit...

My family came for a visit...Dad, Debbie, David, Ben, Katelyn and Abigail. It was so wonderful to see them. They arrived on Wednesday evening. I greeted them with tears of joy! I was so excited to have them in Berlin, happy that they would have time with me in my "home town". We had a wonderful time, very relaxed. They left yesterday...at 4:00 AM. Now I am in my flat with remnants of their visit. Glasses on the counter, Dad's crumbs from the streuselschnecke, Abby's yogurt bowl, wine glasses from dinner the night before. Rumpled sheets on the bed. The sofa bed with pillows strewn. I am still enjoying the aftermath and basking in the joy of their visit. I hate to clean up and wipe away the last visible traces...

Missing you!
