There were up’s and down’s… it took them longer than we would have liked to adjust but they definitely have now had experiences they will remember for a long time and they are also excited to go back and see friends they made again.
As with everyone, each kid had their own struggles from anxiety about being far from grandparents to sadness missing a best friend… each of them had bouts of homesickness for sure.
Overall, I am so glad we did the trip and look forward to more adventures and opportunities to cross cultural boundaries as a family.
