It is Always Hard to Say Goodbye!




Last night we had to take my mom back to the airport. Luckily, she made it back to St. Louis before the winter storms hit. Even though we have probably spent more days with my parents, Chris' mom and grandma than we did living in Detroit it is always hard to say good-bye. It seems much harder since we moved to Dubai. It also reminds me how far away we actually are. We had a wonderful visit with my mom and are again so grateful that our family is willing to spend the time and money to see Savannah and support us in our decision to move. We are anxiously getting ready to plan our first trip back to the US sometime this spring and can't wait to introduce Savannah to the rest of our friends and family! We tried to take one last picture in the lobby of our apartment building but as you can see Savannah's new trick is to look away as soon as the camera comes out!

We spent my mom's last day at the mosque, lunch and shopping. We ate lunch outside with the Burj Khalfia in the background and check out Savannah's new toy from Nana and Granddad! She has so much fun just pushing the buttons, trying to grab the toys and having us push her around. I can't wait for her to figure out that she can make it move!
