And then there were two.

So after Thursday December 9th 2010 we are back to two again. Emma and Johan left Canada to live their lives in Holland again, quite emotional to say goodbye at Calgary International Airport. It's quiet here in rural Alberta with them gone now, but in time we will get used to that. At moments like these you start doubting the decision you took a coupe of years ago. We should have gone 10 years earlier, our kids could have developed their lives here. Other milestones, driving back to Edmonton, in your live also spring to mind; looking back there is one decision I deeply regret; I did not have the balls to take on the adventure of switching jobs to a steel-fabricator in my birth province. Even in hindsight it would have been the better move as steel-drafting was shifting to the fabricators who were being saturated with 3D solid modeling software. Some 12 years later I do have the balls to cross the pond to Canada at age 50. I wonder. On the other hand we probably would not have moved here.
