Home

I recently spent a week in the states visiting my sister, brother-in-law & their newborn daughter.  I got back last Sunday.  Mike brought Ben to the airport to pick me up.  When I finally got through all the lines and baggage claim, this was the face I saw.  Mike somehow took that picture while holding both Ben and the camera.  Ben is rarely this happy to see me.

And he NEVER holds my hand voluntarily.

On the way home, we stopped on base for lunch.  Getting Ben to leave was a challenge.  First he wanted to play with the video games.  Then he found these poles to hide behind.

On the way out he followed that stone line until it ran right into this concrete block.  Mike had to pick him up to get him to keep going to the car.
