Something I'd like to say...

This is about Mama flying back home last Friday.

I imagined what it would like my dad waiting for her at the airport and how they might both feel when seeing each other. Would there be a great sense of accomplishment after a new and challenging grow-up phase at their 60s? I was sure that my dad must have been quite proud of Mama. You know the moment we became parents they became grandparents. Also brand new role and brand new phase of the life. In our case that we live abroad, the task of helping take care of the baby has been especially difficult for them. Mixed with the great joy of seeing their cute grandson grow up day by day is exhaustion from taking care of everything, homesickness from being 8000 km away from home and separating from each other for months (which had not happened even when they had been young), and unfamiliarity in this foreign country in Europe.

I imagined this one day in the future (I’ve no idea when and how far it would be, probably at my 60s as well), when I had overcome similar difficulties in our life, and Lele was picking me up at the airport, he’d be that proud of my as well, as he’d been in the advent of every new phase of our life.

So what exactly do I want to express? Deep gratitude to my parents for everything, satisfactory and thankful feelings for our life so far, great anticipation for our life in the future, I guess. Could be more that is hard to describe. This is natural, right? ^_^
