Heading Home

A couple more days and we'll be hopping on a plane back to Singapore. Getting ready for the trip has kept us busy the whole of last week and this time around, I'm going to make sure there's no last minute packing. :)

I'm happy to say Kayla's clothes are all taken care, and I'm hoping I'll get mine done tomorrow. But it isn't so much the packing I'm worried about. It's the plane ride. We're still haunted by the no-sleep 20-hour flight last year and I'm really praying hard that this time round, it'll be easier. We've armed ourselves with an arsenal of snacks (lollipops, Gerber stars, rice crackers) and I also bought a couple of little crafts to keep the lil princess occupied. We're just wondering if we should bring some Benadryl for backup! :)

It's going to be another busy next few days, since we're expecting visitors a day or two after we return (in other words, we've gotta get the house spick and span before we leave). And I'm hoping we won't return to a yard of withered plants. Mikey spent an afternoon fixing up the drip irrigation and it seems to be working alright (*fingers crossed*).

Now that she's older, Kayla's really excited about the trip, though I don't think she remembers anything about the plane ride. It'll be fun hanging out with Gong Gong and Po Po, instead of just talking to them via the computer. And I know she'll have a good time playing with her not-so-little cousin Darrell. :)

As for me, I'm just looking to recharge my batteries, chill out at home, hit every item on my to-eat list, and of course, catch up with my precious old pals. See ya real soooooon! :)
