A few weeks ago he mentioned friends asked if he wanted to go to Spain, what did I think?
What did I think? GO! Yes, Go!! Go forso many reasons, Go.
Not to mention the friends were all experienced travellers - so, I was grateful for the experience. What mom wouldn't be? Then he went ! LOL!
Not just somewhere we could go get him if he needed assistance - from what I don't know - he fishes and camps in places I've never dared. Spain - not so easy.
I was slightly stresses, I missed him terribly as did his dad... I only told family and close friends and glad of that! I can't tell you how many said as soon as they heard about the plane crash in France - they thought of us, he did have to take several 'unexpected flights' as it was.
I pray for the famalies left behind to try to understand and deal with that nightmare.
He is already home! I tell you I cried tears of joy the moment he appeared through that frosted glass! ;)
He also had the perfect opportunity to prank his mom and he did.
At 5: something.m. I sleepily (not yet made it down to mako a cup of coffee) check my e mail. Anxious to see if my son has sent me any photos of his journey!
I see an email from Storm! I'm thrilled! I read the subject line:
Arrested in France.
My heart stopped. I looked at it, read it at least 3 times and the first thought was oh my God, I don't have my passport up to date!
I opened the e mail expecting the all the gory details - OR what IF that his only 'few short words' from his new Spanish jail cell??!!!
April fools...
OMGOSH!! Are you kidding me - I looked up at the date on the corner my screen and smiled and got angry and laughed and cried and laughed .. OH he got me! It was the perfect chance and he took it. I have giggled about it since the next day. He is worried about 2016.
He should be.
He is home and I am hugged and he has made us laugh already several times with his adventures he has shared. How awesome he went over and saw so many friends that we have made over the years! He was treated very well and felt very loved.
He really loved the food!
His photos are wonderful! The memories he will have are priceless.
I was also worried about medicine and so was Storm, so this too was the perfect trip to put some fears to rest. He said he certainly has no issues in Spain, where it is treated differently and no one appears to have 'problems with it'.
I am not suprized. More lies. I know too many now who have all told me the same.
We are just thrilled he is home safe and had a wonderful vacation.
I still have a special cartoon Ive been working on, distracted today by my son and the sun. ;)
and this pair, the snail and the frog, I've fallen for this snail... I have a snail and a crow, butterfly, more toads. He makes me smile my big loveable toothy snail... he is 'sticking' around.
Hee hee hee
Now, I'm on to Chickadees and cherry blossoms.
Persistence in all things.
Including turning dreams into reality.

I love Easter!
This one was all the more special - Storm took some really stunning photos!
I will share (If he let's me) lol
He is Risen!
Celebrate!
