comes with age, experience, family of my own?

read my profile to left. it's usually just myself, superman, and supergirl. and we are fine. superman and his family have issues. my family have issues. i'm leaving this 'broad.' although we wish for more 'relatives' to be in our lives, they are not around or close enough to be. but we've always thought-- well even if they lived close enough, maybe we'd still prefer to be just us 3, maybe? it's nice to enjoy the warmth of too many relatives around, but only for a 'limited' length of time, right?

but our 2 weeks abroad, up and down, north to south, we visited many many relatives, most who haven't even met supergirl until now. WE HAD A GOOD TIME. and now i miss them all alot. i've never felt this way before. it was nice i suppose for a change to have 'nosy' people popping in when you wish they wouldn't. or a day that is so packed with activities, you don't have time to 'think' and wish people would leave you alone instead. and you end up having fun. having lots of dinners out. lots of activities.

towards the last 2 days our us imposing upon certain relatives, we can feel the hospitality wavering a bit and everyone was getting bored, less activities ensued, and things just slowed down. we are not so exciting or fresh to them anymore. and then we left and returned home!!

i thought 2 weeks, with 1 1/2 days spent in an airplane up in the air-- would be 'too' short of a visit. especially such a rare occasion to travel abroad and visit!!! BUT IT WAS PERFECT. just long enough to feel welcomed and loved, and short enough not to wear out our welcome, and maybe to be missed.

just didn't realize i'll be (here's hoping they are missing us too) missing them. i do. supergirl had such a fabulous time with her cousins, aunties, uncles, gramps, etc etc. it was def a most memorable trip. unforgettable.
