So getting home from Colorado turned out to be a bigger deal than expected. Our plan was to fly home on Tuesday to Atlanta – unfortunately the weather and airlines combined to
prevent this from happening. While Tuesday was completely beautiful in Colorado – in Atlanta it was snowing. Our flight home was canceled – fortunately it was easily rescheduled for the next day. Daddy and our friends were happy to stay – I was not. I just had to accept that I would not see Sugar Plum for another day. When we finally did get back to Atlanta it was like time stood still! It has never taken so long for us to get our luggage – the ski’s were sent to oversized luggage – which apparently takes days longer to manuever through the airport. It finally arrived and we were off to the grandparents house to get our Sugar Plum.
We quickly got all of Sugar Plum’s things together to go home. Sugar Plum quickly smiled at her daddy but did not seem to remember her momma. The mommy guilt quickly set in – why had I left her behind, we should have taken her with us. Once we returned
home and were able to deal with a catastrophe related to a large fish tank, we were able to settle our attention 100% on Sugar Plum. All I had to do was sing her favorite song to her – Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star – and the smiles for momma began. All this darling girl has to do is smile and I am a puddle at her feet.
In the days since returning home things have returned to normal. I get to spend all the time I want with my handsome husband and sweet baby girl. What could be better?
