Two weeks ago, I flew out to New Jersey for my cousin Karen's daughter's bat mitzvah (mazel tov Alyssa!). My parents came with me, while my sweet husband stayed home and painted our entire house. It was an adventure in flying, navigating TSA (got pretty close to losing it), rental cars, hotels, sick toddlers, and some serious socializing and catching up. Peter was amazing. We totally screwed up his sleep schedule and I'm paying for it now, but it was worth it. I was so glad to get to introduce him to my family and to spend time with everyone. I craved more time with each one of them, but was happy to get home to a familiar place, Jake's help and a beautifully painted house!
