Mexico

I never thought a week ago I would be in Mexico. My mom asked me to come on Monday and we were on a plane the next morning. Not only am I thrilled for the oppertunity to partake in the rest and relaxation, but I am moved by the support I received from my family and friends to make it happen. It is hard for me to take breaks. I sit comfortably in go go go mode. I almost think that if mom had given me one months notice I would have turned down the offer. I needed to be shoved into the experience. I am very thankful for the ability to spend close to a week unwinding and connecting with my mom.
I will definitely come home tan. I will probably come home pickled, thanks to the margaritas (or truth serum as my mom calls them). But as the tan fades and the hang over wears off the memories that have been created on this trip will be forever held in my heart.
