A few hours after we hugged Grandma and Pops (Jason's parents) goodbye, I
headed to the airport to pick up Pappa and Nanna Wachs. I am not sure what will happen to my
heart when we the last hug goodbye is given from our month long “festival of guests”
but I do know it is full of love right now.

| Where's dad? |
My father has always been a “bigger than life” role model to
me…his heart is big, his brain is huge, and his patience is even larger...it
had to be to raise his head strong daughter! Today I had another “first in Germany” experience...it was
the first time my dad seemed “small” too me. No, it wasn’t because all of his great qualities shrunk upon
his arrival, but rather he was standing in the middle of a HUGE Gothic church.
Funny that dad “jumped the pond” (as he calls it) to Germany
and appeared “small” for once in my life.
I am sure that image of him touring the church, looking like an ant, will
quickly disappear over the next two weeks as I spend time with he and
Loretta. I am also sure that when
he hugs me goodbye on the way back across the pond, he will leave an even larger empty spot in my heart!
