Preparing to Leave

So everyone knows that my kids can drive me nuts.  But as I prepare to send them off for 10 days and then head off myself 4,000 miles away, I just want to hold on to them forever.  I told Hannah this morning that if we didn't take our trips, what would we be doing?  Sitting around the house, running through the sprinkler, going to work and summer camp.  I told her we can do that when we get back.   That seemed to help both of us.  She is ecstatic to go see her cousins and I think back to my summers as a kid and I loved going to my Grandma's.  These are the memories she needs to make.

So... today is the last day of work.  I am wrapping up those last things.  I am really going to let go this time and not worry that someone might need something from me.  Things will go on without me here.  I am not that important!
