Homecoming Celebration
In November of 2008 we made our first trip to the USA with Little Miss in tow. She was 5 months old and we were having a homecoming celebration of sorts. Little Miss is half-American thanks to me and this was her first time on what is my “home turf”. It was also the first time that my Dad and Stepmom had met her as they hadn’t been able to visit us in England when she was born.
Our first flight was an excellent one and Little Miss charmed the flight attendants and even slept in a wee bassinette (a plastic box secured to a table really). When we arrived in the US we popped Little Miss in her Baby Jogger pushchair (a new acquisition especially for the journey) and right before we went through the sliding doors I fitted this US Flag bandana on her wee head. She looks rather excited don’t you think? I’d like to think it’s because she was so looking forward to the adventure ahead but lets face it, she was just a happy baby!
This trip was a very special one as we were able to see friends and family and introduce our daughter to a bit of what Mummy knew. During the trip she officially turned six months old, continued eating purees like a rock star, learned how to clap and charmed the boots off of everyone she met. Life was good. It was well and truly a homecoming celebration.
This post is inspired by Tara Cain’s Gallery theme which, this week, is Celebration. Have a look at the other celebrations on offer from other magnificent bloggers/photographers.
