Longings...




I never thought I would see the day that I would want to return to my hometown. But lately, more and more I realize that my heart is there - and how can I live without a heart? In all honesty, the town I grew up in is quite a bit different than the one I left 5 years ago. It's grown and evolved and every time I go back I am shocked at the transformation but it's essence is still the same. The last time my boyfriend went with me he wrote a postcard to his parents, it said:

Saint John is great except I haven't seen that much of it. Sara knows everyone and is always stopping to catch up so it's hard to get anywhere.

This is true. My sister, who hates SJ with a passion, gets irritated whenever she goes to the city market with me because I am always running into people I know. To me however, that's the charm of the city. It's a big city but it doesn't feel like it.

I am heading home with Win to see my family and friends and I can NOT wait. The ocean, the bbq's, the music, the people...it's going to feel so good but I know I will come home longing for more.

I am attaching a few pics of Win so you guys (if anyone is even out there) can sneak a peak at his pure cuteness.

love and dulse,


Sara
