One stuffed diaper bag, bursting with snacks, toys, books...what am I missing here? Oh yes, diapers and a change of clothes. Check.
One stroller, which most likely toddler will refuse to sit in, and which will form one extraneous piece of hand baggage, taken in hope nonetheless. Check.
One hyperactive toddler, sensing the excitement in the air and buzzing in anticipation. Check.
One hovering Papa, who will miss toddler and her mom like crazy, but is pretending to be happy to 'finally have some peace and quiet.' Check.
One harried, nervous Mama, wondering if she's taken enough headache pills to last her through the journey. Check.
Steeling of nerves. Check.
Taking of deep breaths. Check.
...And we're good to go! See ya on the other side!

Thanks for the comment on my post Moppet's mom.. Hope you and the moppet arrived in India safely. Have fun and keep us posted..

Lol at hyperactive kid- check. And yes, the hyperactivity and anticipation is tangible in that pic!!
Have a safe and enjoyable journey and holiday, and am sure the Moppet won't give you a severe migraine! She looks too delightful for that.
Thanks for all your wishes. We made it home in reasonable shape. Moppet is still adjusting to her new environment, and has to have me in visual range ALL the time. Which is more than a bit tiresome, but I hope will only last a day or two.
you're in india and you're blogging!!!! saw your comment on DMC and thought - what is she doing online! get away from the comp, girl - go out and have fun :) we'll wait patiently for your return...hugs to Moppet.
She's bound to settle down in a few more days...and then you'll miss her. :)
Have fun! Get pampered.
Moppet has such sparkling beautiful eyes ... hope she enjoys her stay. Is this her first visit ?
Hope you had a good flight, ofcourse waiting for updates!
K's Mom: Point me to the nearest chapter of Blogaholics Anonymous!
Tharini: Right as usual! She's settled in nicely now - so am all set to retrieve what remains of my holiday :-)
CA: Welcome! And yes, it's her first visit since we moved to Bangkok, but that was barely 6 months ago. It's a good third of her life, so guess it's a long time for her!
Orchid: Coming right up!
