I can’t believe it’s August already… where does the time go? It felt like yesterday we were celebrating Independence Day and I was out hanging with my girls. This month has been kinda tough so far. Just the thought of moving real soon, and my sister’s move to Washington State, me being alone in the house with the kids and parents on the other side of the world *sigh* It’s been driving me crazy.
This past Saturday I sent my kids off to Indonesia with my parents. We left for the airport pretty early in the morning and I think I held myself pretty well trying not to cry because I didn’t want to upset my kids and I wanted them to feel they’re going to have a safe flight. We had Mickey D’s for breakfast and we were sitting together for one last time before I send them off. Once we were done, we headed to security check-point and that’s when I lost it. As we were saying our goodbyes, I gave my kids the longest hug in their life, I almost couldn’t let go. I was standing there along with my sister and bf, crying my ass off, just to make sure they go through the metal detectors ok. We waved at them until we can’t see them anymore. I cried so bad, I couldn’t breathe. I’m choking now as I type this post 
I got the chance to speak to them tonight and they are having a great time. Everyone and the people in the village loves them. It’s a surprise to me that they’re not complaining about not having video games and computer access. I think they adjusted very well to a different kind of lifestyle. I miss them terribly.
