Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving in the US! Wow! Who would have thought that! Well there is certainly a lot to give thanks for. The mere fact that we made it here in good health and were able to spend the day with a wonderful family is too good to be true.

Kiara and Megan finally got to meet each other. Megan had heard that Kiara was going to visit and started to Skype Kiara 6 weeks ago. The greeting was great, first they exchanged gifts and for the rest of the day they played together. The family we spent the day with were the Rock's (Matt's family). It's a nice way to end our holiday. Tomorrow we fly back to Holland.

It's been very good to be away for a little while. Kiara had a wonderful time as well. I am sure she will have problems adjusting again. She will certainly miss little Zara when we get back. Hurray for Skype, once again .That will keep her connected and thus I created a new citizen of the World. When I get back I will slowly start thinking about going back to work. I have agreed to re-acquaint with my co-workers at PwC in December.

Well, one more day to go! Apart from having a fantastic time visiting Jocelyn, Matt and the baby, it was also really nice to see Jocelyn's parents again!

We had dinner at their house last night and as usual it felt very familiar to be with them. After all I have known them since I was 9 years old too. The funny thing is that Kiara too felt totally at ease with them. It's interesting how you can pass these things on!
