I'll hold your hand if you hold mine. I have literally spent 10 nights away from Ty since he was born 18 months ago. That's a total of aroung 540 days (give or take a few) and I have spent 530 of them with him. And, all 10 that I have been away for have been work related. This is a big step for me to leave him by choice, and I am sure that I will be missing him too, especially on Sunday which is his 18 month birthday.
My only consolation is that unlike many of the other ladies kids, Ty can't tell me how much he's going to miss me while I'm gone... But, I also know that he and Dave will have a fun weekend being boys without me, and I know that Ruben & your kids will have a great time too!
ok roadtrip partners.....
gotta say I am feeling like a horrible mother here. the 2 of you are already weepy and I can't wait to run screaming from this house of laundry, diapers, crayon-marked walls, and constant arguing over whose turn it is to play halo 3! no matter what happens on this trip, I won't have to wipe anyone's bottom (ok well except my own), cook anyone meals, or say 10 times a day "why didn't you tell mommy you had to go potty".
That alone is worth the world....being at DLR is just the icing on the cake.
