slovakia. thousand miles away from home. sigh! away from the things i grew up with. sigh! away from friends and family. sigh! but i never thought being a mommy would bring the biggest sigh of all...
being a mommy to two wonderful kids is both a blessing and a joy. they have brought me so much happiness even amidst all the tantrums. but, it's the things that i couldn't or wouldn't be able to do for them (or give to them) that makes me sad. not in such a strange country with a very difficult language.
* lost in translation pedia/doctor checkups
* no PTA's (and even if they have one i wouldn't be able to participate anyway)
* no graduations or recognition days
* first birthdays can pass in a blur
SIGH!
