Girls Time

Thursday morning three of my girlfriends picked me up for my first ever "mom's away" vacation. In all the years my husband and I have been married, he'd never slept alone in our house, let alone having to take care of the kids. My wonderful husband kept insisting that I take this trip, and I'm so glad that I did! We did lots of shopping, saw a movie, and mostly just laughed and spent time together. It was a tremendous 2-1/2 days, and it was really just the right amount of time. I felt completely safe and confident that things were fine at home, and yesterday when I got home I was so ready to be home. The kids got to hit the pool and spent an evening with friends. It was wonderful for us all!
