7am and All is Quiet!
Hello all! As you know, we have visitors! Kayla and Colt arrived a little late, very early Thursday morning (nearly 1am). They were exhausted from their long flight from NC, and I can definitely sympathize. I detest flying to the east coast myself, as it’s such a long flight.
On the way to the airport, Steve and I hardly spoke. We were both deep in thought about what was about to happen. It’s hard to believe that 18 years had passed since Steve last saw Kayla. A few days before her arrival, we looked at the photographs that he has of her - as a baby - that he’s kept with him all these years. It was quite emotional.
Kayla and Colt were just about the last ones down from the gate. They took the elevator, as Kayla had Colt in a stroller. The door opened, and I saw them standing there. Steve moved toward them, and I began taking photos. It was such a wonderful moment, to see them hug each other after so long. Colt seemed a little confused as to who we were, but he warmed up to us. Both Kayla and Steve had tears in their eyes, and after they finally let go of each other, I gave Kayla a big hug too. (I’m posting all photos at full size - sorry if they load slow!)
