I'm emotional about this trip

Andrew and the kids just left to go to Andrew's parents.  For a variety of reasons, I didn't go.  I'll be honest, I had really been looking forward to all of the quiet and alone time I am going to have this weekend.  However, I am much more emotional about this trip than I thought I would be.  For one thing, it's usually only a two day thing, but this time they won't be back until Tuesday.  That's a lot of hours alone.  For another thing, usually once they make the trip over, I get to relax from my anxiety over them traveling until they return.  That isn't the case this time though, as they will be leaving tomorrow to drive another four hours, return to his parents Monday, and then drive home Tuesday...so the entire trip is traveling.  Lastly, the death of Bryston makes me want my family right here at home with me.  Right now I don't want them out of my sight.  I know that isn't realistic, but it's my emotional state right now.  I am praying fervently for them all to return safe and sound on Tuesday!
