They won’t let me go!
Alright, after being back from my Lijiang trip last week, 6 days later I had to leave my family again. I had to leave the house at 6:30am on Saturday, to Houston, on a business trip.
I told Ian few days ago, and to my surprise he wasn’t that receptive this time. He paused for a while, then told me in a crying tone, “Mama, I love you. I don’t want you to go again…”
That really breaks my heart. I had to tell him that I’m going to US to bring back his Transformer Bumblebee toy. When he heard that, he was so happy and asked me to go immediately (kids…).
Well, though he said that, on Saturday morning, he refused to let me leave the house. He cried until DH closed the door! I have no idea how long he cried after I left. Isabel was still asleep so didn’t really have that problem. 
This time we are staying in a different place in Houston. We are all in Galveston Island, a resort island! My flight schedule allows me to be able to spend a day free and easy on Sunday as I arrived on Saturday night.
Unfortunately, after breakfast Sunday morning, it rained! It rained all the way till 5pm. What a disappointment.
Anyway, at least I spent half an hour walking on the beach. As expected, we didn’t get ocean view rooms. Somewhat I knew that! 
Will be back in a few more days. In the meantime, I will try to update whenever I find the time at night. LOL! Still not forgetting my blog! :p
