A breath of fresh air......

....has just blown into Vietnam. Monika, Troy's younger sister, arrived today and I could not be happier. I needed this. A familiar face that I love and have missed and that will give me that extra boost to keep enduring. It helps that Monika, aka Auntie Moo, is so easy to be with. These next 3 weeks will be a delight (maybe just for me...we'll see what she says May 15th).

One excited boy to see his Auntie Moo. Drey climbed through the bars and took off when he saw her walk through the doors.

sweet reunion

 I was so excited to see Monika also that I forgot about my second son and somehow left him behind. The security guards found him (I'm talking like 30 seconds here...not hours) and Auntie Moo rescued the lost child. My brain is a little cloudy these days.

Drey would not look at the camera for his picture...this is the magic moment I captured of these two.

And then came the gifts....

Making the traditional lunch of ham sandwiches and chips.

these two have become fast friends...she won him over with the dog :)

Nothing like a nice massage to get the kinks out from a  24 hour flight. 

It was right to work for the Holzer duo... no time to waste. Good luck staying awake in the meeting :)
