Missing my girls on their 11 month birthday...

Girls, you are 11 months old today and I am in Geneva. I knew that I would miss you when I was away from you for the first time, but I didn't realize just how much. I feel like a piece (or two) of me is missing. You both bring so much joy to my day to day life, that a day away from you just isn't quite complete. You are always on my mind and I don't know how I existed fully before you were here. I hate the fact that you have been sick this week and that I haven't been there to hug you, kiss you, hold you. Thankfully I have been very busy this week - lots of productive meetings, dinner at some of our favorite Geneva restaurants - so the week has gone by pretty fast. Being back in Geneva makes me want to take you girls here ... I want to take you on our favorite walking route through the Old Town, to play fetch with Tobi in his favorite "gravel" park across from our old apartment, to watch the boats out on the lake, to pick fresh fruits & veggies from the market on Saturday mornings. I want to take you on your first tram ride to go shopping, to let you taste your first croissant... I want you girls to experience the world and I can't wait for Randall and I to be able to introduce you to new & different places. On the flip side, right now I just can't wait to be home with you tomorrow. I am so anxious that I am not sure I will be able to sleep tonight. Sleep well my dears and prepare for lots of snuggles this weekend. Happy 11 month birthday! I miss you Kenzie & Lexi ( and Randall & Tobi too)!
xoxo, Mommy
