John's Back Home Safe & Sound

Yeah!!! John made it back from Singapore late yesterday afternoon. He rolled in the door around 5:30, just as the kids were being put in time out. So, everyone had to wait a minute while they did their time. At this stage, I couldn't just let them get off without any time out. They had decided to up the ante with the china cabinet and they both hit the glass with sticks! Yes sticks! They were having fun with them earlier in the day and I knew it would progress to the china cabinet eventually, but I didn't take them away soon enough. (I'll post some video of the kids and their sticks later today)
Anyway, when the kids got out of time out they ran into the kitchen and then slowly proceeded to the den where daddy was waiting for them. They both ran to him and of course he had to juggle both at the same time. They are very impatient at this age. They loved on daddy all night and Jake even had a tough time going to bed. He really wanted to hang out with daddy I think.
When the kids let John get up for a bit, he showered and tried to relax. This time the flight was only 19 hours vs. 23. The jet stream worked with them on the way home. It's going to take him a couple of days to get his days and nights back on track (Singapore is 13 hours ahead of us), but hopefully he'll be well rested soon.
We're so glad to have you back daddy!!!
