Today I said some final goodbyes.

Yogurt and a mall trip with Hutlas.

I'm gonna miss these people...

The time nears.

Today I enjoyed some of my farewell gifts:

A treasure box of notes and photos from my most dearly loved ones to bring with me on my journey.

Some beautifully presented educational material about my destination.

Scenes of my family.

What immeasurable gifts...

A day with people I love.

Of course, Noah loves Gail, and Amy loves being in the middle of the fun.
I just love this photo..

Shireen and her birthday dolphin.
There's some love there, I think.

My Korean mom and her beautiful daughter.
Oh how I love them.

Last Day.

Today:

Arise to address the sweet tugs at my legs.

Enjoy a sunrise over breakfast.

And hand him off...

Today I bid farewell to a markedly unique time in my life when I got to have the most blessed nanny job in the world.
The whole wide world.

Thank you, dear Engers.
Love.

This is Emilia, the sweetest little gal from Norway and the best little traveler I have ever met. One day there will be a facebook group called, "my parents took me across the Atlantic when I was less than a year old." Noah and Emilia will start it.

Noah is hesitant at first, but Emilia is friendly and Noah does love new friends.

Emilia poses with her mamma Elise and her new sun hat.
It came free with her new stroller!

Today: A Series of Bad Disguises.

The spring is early yet; this gecko is still learning the art of blending...

This lady, on the other hand, appears an expert.

And this little guy, well, he's just curious.

I say, you two look better when you are just you.
That goes for the gecko too.

Easter. Egg. Hunt.

In preparation for this annual event that takes place in fields and parks across America each spring, we practiced the art of egg hunting with our Noah very (semi-)diligently. When the big day arrived, the champ proved relatively successful with the hunting of his first egg, but was quickly thwarted in his mission by the presence of other kids. These same kids that threw off Noah's game also took the rest of the eggs.

In the end, this first-time hunter gathered a total of about two and a half eggs. But the joy of it is that he was not counting his eggs at all.

Of course neither were we.

But next year, he will dominate.

This One is Juuust Right.

He likes it.

Good People.

Today we saw some of the folks
that are helping to make Noah's foot as straight as an arrow.

Apple Cheeks.

The family (as in Amy, who is the only girl at home now) has been in search of a photo of my sister Ellen that looks exactly like Noah does in the photo below. Unfortunately, it cannot be located at this time, so let me just tell ya, genetics are strong in the Harwood family.
