when we walked in the door...

when mara + i returned on saturday, as we were approaching our door after traveling all day, mara told me: "joey, i need a half an hour to dust and clean jasper's room and we need to go to the supermarket because there is nothing in the fridge to eat." we opened the door and something felt off, a little different. jasper ran to his room where he found a teddy bear twice as big as him, accompanied with balloons..his favorite. There were fresh flowers in each room, food in the cabinets + fridge, + the entire place was cleaned top to bottom. not only had my sister jessica organized a service to take us home from LAX, but along with some dear friends, and i mean dear, had snuck in before we came home. needless to say we had wet eyes again...but this time of relief. i snapped this pic quickly after jasper discovered his present.
