I totally understand. My sons live in England and I live in the US with my daughters. Not a day goes by when I don't think of them and wish we could all be together again! It really makes me think of the people who emigrated from Europe to the US generations ago when they didn't really have much hope for seeing them again. It must have been hard to live with the reality - no matter how desperate the reasons were for leaving.

I found your post from Hive account@cicisaja's Pay it Forward curation contest entry. Keep up the great work!
