Dear Vacation,
You came and went so quickly.
We didn't have much time to plan or anticipate you, but you were amazing nonetheless.
You were quite the surprise, and we enjoyed every minute of you.
My boy, he really loved you. He talked about you the whole way home. He wanted to go 'back there' he'd say and point behind his car seat with his thumb as if he were hitch-hiking. Back to the beach to jump in the waves and play in the sand. And ride airplanes.
I hope to brag about you very soon,
but for now, I have 16 loads of laundry to fold & put away, dishes to put up, groceries to buy and a house to pack. Oh. And work. Yes. That too.
Oh. And those 980 pictures I took of you, they have to be weeded through and edited.
I've got a new 'cation book' to make for my boy.
And I've got a movie to make of the 55 short clips we took of you so we can relive these memories over many times.
You came at the perfect time. You were much needed. You refreshed my soul.
For now, I can't write much more.
Duty calls.
But Vacation, I love you.
Sincerely,
me
