Now correct me if I am wrong, did I see you looking absolutely dashing at the masquerade ball in france? Tell me about your experience, what did you do? @candceswan

Well if you're referring to seeing a blonde in pink from head to toe, then that was indeed me. France was just wonderful all around. The food and the beach were the two highlights for me. There's nothing like the fresh pastries from the bakeries there. How did you enjoy your time in France?

Not half as much as I miss you, it's been way too long and I hate that. We might not have gotten time to spend together in France, but we'll make time soon, I promise. I can't go any longer without seeing your face. Yeah, I had fun. Being in France is always a wonderful expierence. Did you enjoy yourself? Hoping you had the best time.

It really has been too long. We need to make some sort of pact where we meet up every so often and have a must needed catch up session. Because I need more of your gorgeous face in my life always. I did enjoy myself! I spent most of my time laying on the beach with a drink in one hand and a book in the other. It was just the little getaway I needed, but I'm happy to be back home with my boys.

I know what you mean. It's nice to be with your kids again, I feel the same way. But it was also nice to be away from everything for a little bit. And Marseille just really stole my heart. Such a lovely and beautiful place. Maybe if you're not too busy, you could always go there again, maybe take the kids with you and have a little family vacation. I enjoyed it very much. It was a much needed break.

I know what you mean. It was nice to have some peace and quiet and some time to myself for a bit. Even if I did miss my boys terribly. Did your kids jump on you out of excitement when you got back home? It really was a gorgeous place. Especially the beaches, where I ended up spending most of my time. That doesn't sound like a bad idea, actually. One last little getaway before all the craziness of the VS Fashion Show starts up.

Isn't it weird how the mom guilt just never goes away? Like I know Khai has had the best week ever and I've spoken to her every day. Yet, when those arms wrap around your neck when you reunite, and she says how much she's missed me, my entire heart just sinks. Not that it isn't the best thing on the planet. But you know the feeling I bet? Like even if she is used to me being away and not being with me always, just god.. you never knew you could miss someone that bad. The boys must have been overjoyed to see you again? / @candceswan

Even as they get older, it still never goes away. My mum had the boys for the week. While they were excited to spend a full week at grandma's house being spoiled, there's nothing like the feeling of being reunited with them again. Even though I did have daily FaceTime calls with them, it's just not the same as having your babies in your arms. I haven't let them go since I got home. We've been spending our time by the pool. They've been splashing around, while I get some sun and do some reading.

can i just say your promo for the fact the vs show is coming back? you continue to be stunning. i'm blown away by you and basically you're my idol in all things gorgeous. essentially tell me your ways of how you look that good as a mama of two. tell me your tips and tricks and i'll share all my betty buzz with you. @candceswan

I'm going to need to take a moment to process the fact that the Blake Lively just called me her idol. Because you my darling, are my idol and I've been obsessed with everything about you since first watching The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants movies decades ago. You should know, as a mother of four with a banging body herself! The best trick is just to stay active in any way you can. I try to hit up the gym a few times a week for yoga and pilates. I also take the boys on a daily walk around the block after dinnertime. Which helps them get out all the remaining energy they have left in them before unwinding for the night. Did I spill enough to get my hands on the Betty Buzz?

i'd do anything to spend some quality time with you, candy corn. private: though, i should warn you—i might look a little different. i'm not quite sure how to say this, so i'm just going to come out with it: i'm pregnant.

PRIVATE: Oh my god, babe! Congratulations, that's so amazing! Do you know how far along you are or what the gender is?

babes, if i don't get to have at least one glass of wine with you on this trip, i will consider it a failed trip. it's been way too long since we got to actually sit down and have a proper catch up and i want to know everything of what it going on in the life of my all time favorite angel woman.. spare me a glass or two before this trip is over yeah?/ @candceswan

I would never let a trip pass us by without carving out some time for you, my darling. I miss you so, so much and I need to hear about what's new in your life and how that precious little girl of yours is doing. How about we grab lunch tomorrow? Gossip over a few glasses of wine and then maybe hit the beach or the pool to relax a bit?
