Returning to reality

We just got back from an amazing family vacation with my family in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. We were right on Lake Michigan and could go to the beach anytime we wanted; or the hotel we were staying at also at an indoor waterpark that we could also visit at any moment.

A perfect family vacation!

Unfortunately all vacations have to end. Liam found that out tonight.

9:00 pm

M: "We're home Liam! Doesn't it feel great to be home finally?"
L:  "No, I want to go to our other home."
M: "Oh, you mean the hotel on our vacation?"
L:  "Yes! I want to go back there! I don't want to be at this home!"
M: "Well, that isn't our home. It's just where we stayed while we were on vacation."
L:  "I want to go back to cation. I don't want to stay here! (tears beginning)
M: "Me too buddy. I want to go back to vacation too."

I'm not sure where Liam thought we were going today in the car. But apparently, when you combine the beach, a waterpark, sleeping on the top bunk of a bunk bed and uninterrupted time with Violet and Eli (and other family members as well) it makes coming back to the "real world" very hard. Especially when it's 9 o'clock at night.
