You came and you went, and it was wonderful

Dear Nate,

It's getting late. The kids are both asleep, the house is quiet, Munich is calm and there is a breeze coming through the window. The dishes are done, the laundry is folded and there's nothing left to do but relax and marvel at all that was accomplished today. There's not a whole lot to update you on, my mom and I got some iced coffees and took the girls to the water park. Vella played hard with a bunch of kids for a good solid 2 hours. We brought them home, cooked the steak in the fridge and had a nice dinner. Vella requested the "Foots Book" since according to her you had read this to her and, as such, will likely be a new favorite. She did her usual shenanigans but went down easy enough. Audrey was suprisingly easy going, and after nursing and sitting on my knee for a good 30 minutes went willingly in her swing where she drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

Although I'm already missing you like crazy, I'm happy that we got to spend some quality time together as a family.

I love you.

Lauri
