In a matter of days (DAYS!!!), we will be taking our first family trip to India with Abhimanyu. It’s been a hectic few weeks. Lots of work and preparation (getting baby’s first passport!). And now that just packing a bit of last minute shopping remains, it’s starting to dawn on me how much I’m looking forward to it.

And I’m not just talking about the five days in Goa (for just the two of us!) that Nate and I have planned. I’m really excited! To take walks with Abhi and show him all the neighborhood sights. To be there when he meets his great-grandparents. To watch his face as he enjoys fruits he’s never seen before. To pass on a really big part of my childhood.

I plan to share as much of that with you as possible, so you should start getting excited, too!
