About a week and a half into our stay here, I began to feel slightly homesick - something that is very rare for me. I alternated between wanting to go home at that second and never wanting to leave Germany.
(I no longer feel that way, but in hindsight, I think it was due to the lack of sun. It was so gloomy and rather depressing for awhile...and with weather like that, well, I couldn't help but miss my bright, sunny, airy room, the sun, and my friends.)
But now in this last week of our time overseas, I've decided to embrace every little thing. Embrace the time I still have with family. Embrace sleeping in (I know I'm going to be bombarded with things to do when I get back).
I'm going to embrace the last moments.
Is there anything you're embracing the last moments of?

Oh wow! Your photos are gorgeous! My hubby has been to Germany and says it's beautiful. And Paris! You are one blessed girl and I'm so happy that you are able to travel when you are young. I wish I had traveled more before I got married and had kids. Now I have to wait until my girls are older...but I can live vicariously through your photos! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm embracing the last few hours being 15. My birthday's tomorrow and I'll be 16, which I'm really excited about but I'm just sentimental!
