Mom's Visit

We had company here in these parts-Mama Jean! Mom flew back with Finn and me, which was a Godsend. I was so prepared for Finn and the flight that I, of course, neglected to plan for myself with the detail I once did. The flights were fine, but it was so nice to have help with the baby at Narita airport. It's a bit different than the major international airports Stateside.

We had SOOOOO much fun on Mom's visit. We didn't do a ton of stuff on the island (we can't do it all so they'll keep coming back ;) ), but we did make it to the Churaumi Aquarium up north. It was so much fun. We decided to go on my birthday, which coincided with an absolutely gorgeous Okinawan day. We stopped and had lunch at a resort on the East China Sea and enjoyed the drive through the jungle near the aquarium. It is so nice sharing our little life here with our friends and family.

Mom helped us get Finn's room together, get ourselves together. There weren't any dry eyes in the Sawin abode the day she had to fly back. We are so thankful Mom was able to come out and help us. Can't wait to see her and Dad this spring!
