Happy Mothering Sunday

Today is the UK version of Mother's Day. This special day is two months before our traditional Mother's Day back home, and I actually just realized this a few days ago. No reason why you can't celebrate the mom's twice in one year though. 

A special thank you of course goes out to Christa, who has been keeping the family together during our year abroad. The blog may make it seem like its one big vacation, but there is a lot of work that goes into packing up your life and moving to a new country for a year. My teaching commitments have meant that Christa has had to handle virtually all of the school responsibilities with the kids, be my personal therapist as I adjust, and carry the bulk of the load keeping the house functioning. She's been really amazing through this whole process, which for all the wonderful times can be quite exhausting. So Happy Mothering Day to Christa, my mom, and all of you moms' out there!
