What do you miss most?

Since we arrived back in the States I have been answering the question, "What do you miss most when your in Haiti?"

It seems like a retorical question in the way that I believe the answer is obvious - people.  I miss my mom and dad, and the rest of my family and friends.  I knew that being away from the people I love would be the biggest struggle before I left.  Now that I have been gone for 3 months and been away from these people it seems even more overwhelming to return.  Who would choose voluntarly to live apart from the people they love.
But, after the past 3 months my emotions have become even more jumbled.  As I currently sit at my home in the States I miss the children.  I just want to know how they are doing.  I want to be there.  I await Tuesday when I am able to hop out of our red Toyota and hold the children I love.

I wish that I could gather all the people I love and live with them in one place.
