Anticipation

When I was little, I mean really little, like four or five with wild bangs from the early 1990s and my parents marriage was still intact, my cousins Sabrina & Sam would come to my house on Cape Cod to visit from Vermont.  I remember that they would always arrive very late at night and my mom would tell me to go to bed quickly so that when I would wake up, my cousins would be at our house.

Of course, telling a child to go to bed when they are anticipating the MOST FUN EVER is futile and I would literally bounce up and down on my bed until it was way past my bedtime and my cousins would arrive.

This is how I feel this week.

I think sometimes anticipation can be even better than the actual event and so I am trying to harness my inner-child and relish in it all.  In exactly three days we will be en route to Tom's wedding, which will be the first time that the four CORE COUSINS have been together without some sort of ominous event necessitating it. :-)

And so, I will continue to enjoy this week, anticipating the AWESOMENESS that is to come, 10 hour road trip and all!
