This afternoon I leave for California.... ALONE!!!no kids, no baby, no husband, no one
I've racked my brain to think of any time I have ever left Shawn with the kids for longer than an hour or two. I can remember 1 time, when Jefferson was 10 months old I went away over night with my sister-in-laws. Other than that, never. And I can only think of 2 times I've left Shawn and taken the kids. We are just hardly ever separated.
THIS IS MONUMENTAL!
Note: Shawn is the greatest dad in the world and I don't doubt his ability to watch and care for his kids for a second! As for myself, I feel a silly worry feeling. Like a lack of control. What if this, or what if that. Will I'm just a goof.
My mom is throwing my brother a going away party this weekend... he's joining the Air Force. A week ago Shawn asks me "how would you like to go see Ian off?" NO WAY am I going to drive back down there with my kids, I tell him. "Well, you don't have to worry about that, I bought you a ticket to go down by yourself!" WHAT? How thoughtful, maybe he's not so bad after all, ha!
I am going to have absolutely NO responsibilities for 2 whole days. What am I going to do with myself? I may possibly even be able to sleep all the way through the night and even sleep in!! The thought makes me gitty. It's the small things that bring me complete happiness.
Ian doesn't know I'm coming, so he'll be surprised.
Yeah, I can't wait.
Time to pack, then I'm off....
