We had a blast with my folks here for 4 days. The kids really enjoyed hanging out with them. But when we had to say goodbye to them Friday night, Berit (who was very tired to begin with) cried all the way home in the car.

"It's sad to have to miss people, huh Berit?" I tried to console her, and so did Rowan: "Berit, sometimes I miss my friend Sophia, and then I'm sad."
