Note to Self: Don't Forget the Cheerios!

As you can see, Zeina loves to feed herself cheerios! When you open the box, she starts kicking her legs in her highchair and squealing with delight. She would eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner if I let her.

We leave for Saudi Arabia in 5 days. And, cheerios top my list of "Things I need for Zeina on the Plane." At this point, I have so many lists that I'm not sure how I'll get them all completed before the move.

Growing up my mother made situations like this look so easy. She always had so much energy and could make it all happen so seamlessly.

Many of you that really know me, are well aware that my mother is my secret weapon of success. She has been right there with me for every step of this move, helping to pack up my house, making dinner for us, running errands, keeping Zeina -- the list goes on and on.

I just don't know what I am going to do without her in Saudi Arabia, but right now, I need to focus on things like cheerios to make our long trip to the Middle East a little easier.
