So, I haven’t told you but I am going out-of-state for a few days for some VERY close friends’ wedding. Hubby is in it as well. At first I was really excited to go b/c this will be a very nice wedding. Now that the trip is coming up I have been very anxious and upset about leaving my boys. I keep worse case senario’n it and it hasn’t been pretty! I got this from a friend today and it made feel better and have a little laugh at the same time!!! So thank you Nea!
(btw if you have not read her blog-you MUST! You will return and read her blog religiously as she is hysterical- especially on Wednesday’s)
You feel this way because YOU MISS THEM. You’re their mom.
Think of it this way:
They learn Independence
that you’ll come back
that you don’t have to be the center of their universe every minute
that grandma/grandpa can be fun
more importantly:
It’s just you and the husband.
Eat for a few days with having to accommodate meal choices to someone whose palate caters to hot dogs and goldfish.
You can watch whatever you want, no Backyardigans or Yo Gabba Gabba.
You get to talk to adults. all.the.time.
You get to get ready without getting 2 small people ready and stressing about them ruining their clothes.
You can sleep in. Past 7.
You can enjoy having children and someone else taking care of them.
You can drink.
You can Partayyyyyyy.
You are freeeeeeeeeee.
Did I mention… you…hubby…alone.
Yea.. work it.
oh girl, hehe! I know I always feel the same way leaving the children even if we are just going out for a bit. But we deserve to get away sometimes and have some fun with our men! So have fun and partayyyyy some for me 😉
I’m sure it’s so hard to leave your babies… I know I’m gonna have a hard time with that too. But it will be really nice to have some alone time to be with your husband! I’m sure you will have a great time. 🙂
