Homesick.

I've gotten much better about getting homesick over the years. I, quite frankly, rarely miss home anymore. Mainly because being away makes it so much more exciting to go home and I know if I were there everyday I'd be bored. Anyway, that mother of mine knows just how to get me. I'm a little stressed at work and yesterday this photo chimes through on my iPhone with a note reading, "no one will play with me :(" Ugh! How dare she send me the one photo that instantly makes my heart smile and my eyes well with tears all at once? So, at 25 years of age I sat at my desk (with my door shut, thank the Lord!) and cried my eyes out because I wanted to go HOME! You see, home is not a singular place to me- it's wherever Madison is! I'm not sure how I got this attachment to that little dog, but I love her so much it hurts.

So, thanks Mom for the photo. It made my day- after I pulled myself together. I hope people don't mind tear-stained tax returns this year! ;)
