We will be away from these turds for 5 nights. Six days and five nights. So far, in 25 months, I have been away from them for maybe 3 or 4 hours max.
Will I be sad to leave them? Without a doubt. My mom tells me it will be harder than I think... I don't think that is possible.
Here is what I know. These couple of years have been full. And busy. So freaking busy.
But sometimes the Mama + Daddy need a break. A time to put our focus completely on each other. Because I was a wife before a mama. And someday, long after our children are grown. It will be me + him. All alone again.
We think one of the best gifts we can give these turds is a strong us. Our parents did that, and we are grateful.
I'm pretty sure the beach will make it easier for me.
And B is my most favorite dude on the planet after all.
10 years!
Wow.
Love this post! So true that to be a good parents you have to first be a strong couple. Something those turds will cherish forever! 10 years is awesome. You two inspire us as a couple and as parents. Love you guys and miss you TONS!

ReplyDeleteYou mean we can take vacations away from our kiddos? haha! Hadn't crossed my mind. No...j/k...but I think that is a wonderful thing and congrats on 10 years fast approaching!
