Saying Good-byes

My Aunt Cookie and Uncle Tommy passed by yesterday to give us a send off kiss. Here is Little Z posing with my Uncle earlier in the summer down in Galveston.

Good-byes. I thought they would be easier this time around, but they are not. Yesterday, Zeina spent the afternoon playing with her cousins. Here she is watching a DVD with Sara, Sonya and Mia. My goodness, she looks like a big girl to me. After we kissed bye, and as we were leaving, I had to remind myself about how good our life is as a family in Saudi because walking away from people you love is not easy.
