- Bonding with bear and
getting to know him in a way that is not possible in a family of five and
in normal life . This guy is really a man now - incredible to watch
- Pride in making this bold move
for us and coming this far to bali after years of wanting too
- bear getting his incredible amazing rscore the last
morning and being so excited in the morning when we were all waking up (
not sure anything pleases this guys as much as great marks that he works
sooo hard for ! )
- Bear making me eat all my bread/ bear and i competing
with who does (or doesn't!!!! ) go with the flow more / bear allowing us
only one fruit basket and one bread basket even if free as wasting food
goes against his values / bear and asking me to do the dance to make him
laugh / bear often sleeping earlier than us / bear trying to hide us to
not cramp his style in canggu /
- Most of all the howling singer at the ketack fire dance
that bear adored and imitates constantly ! Watch our chase when home we
have a new singing shrieking howling sound for you and your brother to
make and annoy us with every single time you both enter a room !
- Penis bottle openers
- Bear and I totally loosing it in silliness the last 2 hrs of the plane ride home . We were sooo exhausted and bored and so did staring contests and make you laugh contests and tickling contests out of mere and utter boredom and exhaustion. We were so loud and silly like kids ( while hubby slept ! ) we had an extra seat between us so bear wanted to lie on my lap too and play these games which was so cute and a memorable part of the trip !
- Bali is Simplicity , Organized . Calm and peaceful.
Bear at end said in
response to questions how can we bring some of bali home with us ?
Bear said " mom
would need to move out "
Nice !! Shows me
where I can use some serious development !!! Truth spoken from the mouth of
babes . And i am 10 times better in the last few years !!!
Love you bali bear
and I know you super love me :) has been great to get your honest feedback on
this trip as gives me awareness and an opportunity to work on it !
Bali was worth every
single hour to get here ( we shall see if i feel that after today and the long
way back home )
Tomorrow night
ordering in lebenese with the family and of course my wonderful mom and then
this weekend lobster dinner and fathers day at the cottage with the kiddies !
