Aloha from Hawai'i


I have been quiet on blogger these past 2 weeks because I'm currently on a business trip in Hawaii (Oahu).  I arrived last Wed, Mar 9 and I leave on Friday, Mar 18.  I've been to Hawaii many times before and it is always bitter sweet to come here for work.  It is nice because Hawaii is so beautiful and gorgeous; there is really nothing not to love.  But when you come here to work, the attitude changes.  Every day I wake up early, get on email, attend meetings all day long, go to dinner, come back to the hotel room and then still have to do my regular office work.  The work day becomes super long, and I have no time to enjoy the beautiful scenery around me.  

This trip was especially hard because it is my first work trip being away from Sarah. I miss her dearly, especially during the weekend when I think about what she's doing.  I have Skype on my laptop so I get to see what she is doing on live video streaming, which is the best thing ever.  Sarah can hear my voice and still smiles and laughs when I call out her name.  Seeing her on Skype brings so much joy to my day!!  Today, I saw her take a bath, drink her last milk, and fall asleep in daddy's arms.  Such sweet moments.  

One more day, and I shall be flying back home. I can't wait to pick her up from daycare and seeing her excitement!
