My mother has arrived in town for two weeks, which is equal parts excellent and exciting news.
As I write this, she is having some very special one on one time with Octavia, and you can tell this isn’t her first rodeo. The way she holds her and cuddles her suggests that she is a real expert. Three kids will get you there.
We don’t have a huge amount planned for her time over here; more than anything we want to maximize the time we can spend together as a family. With borders, mountains, and oceans separating us, every moment counts.
