Nous sommes ensemble, et je suis contente.

So, I got the greatest Christmas present ever yesterday. After an insane trip for all of us, my dad finally arrived in Amsterdam, and we had dinner together. Everything that could go wrong with this trip, has. Flights have been delayed several times, passports have not been up to date, suitcases have been lost. It doesn't matter thought. My family is together for the first time in about 6 months. It might not seem like a long time, but being together is a rarity. I live in France/England/Boston, and my brother has settled near Philadelphia. Being in Amsterdam together is truly magical. Our family has our share of problems, but we have put them aside to enjoy being together. It is wonderful.
