Buddies

It is hard to move to a new country, especially when you are a kid. Hard enough to attend international school where one doesn't know who will continue in a year to come but to be the one who is moving away even harder.
We try to keep in contact with some of the kids from Davids school and sometimes we manage to do so in the most fun and unexpected way.
This year it happened to be in Luxembourg when I learned that Bora, Davids best friend, was passing Luxembourg on his way to France.
So... Both Josette, Boras mum, and I agreed on making a huge surprise for the boys. So the date, the place were set up. Now we had to wait.
But what should I tell to David? Why we were heading back to the airport only 3 days after our arrival? I told him that a special package will arrive for him. And he bought that. The only thing David was interested was, if he can play with the contents of the package afterwards.
Masha had been told about the surprised and she kept a secret, partly because she forgot, partly she knew how special it is for her brother.  
Anyway... we arrived at the airport...
The terminal was empty. And we were waiting... And people started to show up...

 And we are waiting...

 And waiting...

 When suddenly they realized.... that....

What was going on...

 And boy, how were they surprised and happy!

I am so grateful that Josette and I have arranged that. The face expressions were priceless.
And even these two pumpkins live on two different sides of the ocean, they still are best friends, both waiting to be reunited again, attend the same school, class, visit each other on a weekly bases and just being silly.
Hope, one day their dream will come true, but so far there surprises and unexpected meetings are very priceless and been remembered for a long, long time.
