I am looking forward to coming home in one way. I can't wait to spend time with all my friends and family, go shopping, watch some decent tv but I can't help feeling sad about the life we are going to leave behind here.

The weather is so fantastic, we live a very outdoor life, the beach is 2 minutes away, we live in a very small compact community with friends just around the corner.

We have also had a Filipino lady, Lucy, living with us for 2 years now and we are going to miss her so much. She has become part of the family.

I need to be positive for the children but now we have started talking about possible dates to return I am feeling quite down

do you need to return? You don't sound ready for it

I think I would be sad at leaving all of that as well (sorry, not helpful in the slightest).
