Bits and Bites...

Hugo arrived home safely yesterday morning bringing with him a box of Krispy Kreme donuts that he had bought in Jakarta. That is quite a treat! You can buy donuts here but they are not the same at all….
We had ordered a bed and side tables a couple weeks ago and they came yesterday. A couple things weren’t quite what I had expected but overall we are quite happy. But I feel like the princess from the fairy tale “The Princess and the Pea” when I sleep on the bed. After sleeping on the floor for 8 months, I feel so high off the ground…
Now we have to retrain the kids so they don’t treat our bed like a trampoline anymore…

Hilarious! We spent the first 9 1/2 years of our marriage with a matress on the floor. It never felt like high priority. When we finally got one, we had a hard time adjusting to getting in and out of the bed - especially in the middle of the night.
