Cali, I'm glad the vacation went well. As for her bouncing back and forth from old self to new self...that's very normal until they are fully integrated. She's still got a few months of feeling comfortable in her own skin to go. Please be patient a while longer (that is, if you can hold on for a bit). I'm sending you a brand spanking new patience shovel to help out.
Keep those expectations very low and try not to analyze her every move or comment. She's still growing up.
Take care of yourself.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
