Seeing family and friends is what made our first trip back to the U.S.A. so special but it couldn't last forever and then it was time to head back to Abu Dhabi. Besides after almost one month of "vacationing" and running here and there I was wearing down! I have wondered after moving here how I would feel returning after our first official visit.
We are very thankful for all the friends and family who can provide a place for us to lay our heads when on U.S. soil but we don't technically own a home we can just pop in to anytime we feel. And all our belongings, less 650 pounds, is in crates in a warehouse in New Jersey of all places!
So, when I got on that last plane heading back to Abu Dhabi, I was actually happy and at peace that I was going "home"! That old saying of "home is where the heart is" is quite true.
And if "home is where the heart is" then I truly have two homes. One in Abu Dhabi with the man I have been blessed to share the adventure of life with. And another one in the U.S.A. where all the family and friends we love are!!
