Dear Maya & Emi,
So far this year we've had a lot of the same social distancing and a lot of snowy, cold days. To change things up, we decided to go on a little vacation during your mid-winter break!
We rented a beautiful contact-free Airbnb house near Mystic, Connecticut to stay at and enjoyed playing in the house's game room. Can you say foosball table?
We also got to spend some time by the ocean even if it was cold and windy. Baba grew up just blocks from the sea so it was a great way for him to recenter!
And, of course, no trip to the Mystic area would be complete without going to the aquarium! We bought an annual membership so we could go three days in a row and strategically plan to avoid crowds.
Well, this relaxing, fun change of scenery has hopefully refueled our family for a little while. Now we're all looking forward to spring and counting down the days until our older family members (and mommy) are vaccinated and ready for HUGS! I have to say, I'm so proud of both of you for being brave, strong, and flexible for the last 12 months of trying, confusing times. You're amazing girls and I love you so much!
