After a chaotic morning of costume making and pot luck lunch preparation for Liam's last day of school, the inevitable last minute packing and shopping, a mad dash to the airport, a week chasing 3 kids in Atlanta, another week chasing 3 kids in Sweden, and a return home to endless mountains of laundry and unpacked suitcases, this traveling Santa is all worn out. As such, I will be brief with my words this week. Just to say, it was a safe and joyful trip to see my immediate family and Keegan's extended Swedish family. We are truly blessed with not only wonderful, generous, completely selfless people in our lives, but also beautifully perfect children. The women ringing up my groceries yesterday couldn't have known how poignant her words were to me as she smiled down at a bouncy Liam, "Christmas is really all about the children, isn't it?!" As I look through my photographs and recollect the best memories I have over the last 2 weeks, I realize the majority of them are in fact, all about the children. I couldn't agree more and wouldn't have it any other way.
Happy Holidays from the Andersons! Here's to 2013 and many more photographs!!
You have me completely in tears now. Thank you for coming to visit and for putting up with the crazy swedes! /love, Maria
