Coming home

The wayward travelers are heading home this morning. And not a moment too soon for Little Bit apparently. When her mom called yesterday, she said this little girl is homesick and keeps saying she wants to go home and see Ruby and Bear (her canine companions). She likes the ocean but refuses to go in the pool. I'd have thought it might be the other way around but who knows why?

In retrospect, it doesn't surprise me that she is ready to come home. She's rarely been away for more than a couple of days since she was a baby and is accustomed to being here most of the time. Since she's gotten a little older, she likes to do her own thing and can entertain herself extremely well, the only exception being when Mom gets on the phone and her world seems to fall apart immediately. Or she cause's big sister's world to collapse.

I will be leaving before they get back so won't get to see them. I'm sure the dogs will be happy for them to get home though. They're pretty tired of eating chicken and Edy's Somoas Ice Cream and I'm sure they will be glad to get back to their normal diet of dry food.
