Headed to Seattle!!

I am finding it extremely hard to get excited about leaving my children for 5 days.....

We skipped church, yes I said skipped church to finish up packing and cleaning. ( It really bothers me to leave my home for a few days with hair on the bathroom floor, trash in the trashcan, Cheerios in the high chair and dishes in the dishwasher.) After all that I layed down with Cameron to scratch his back like normal and I found myself clinging to him for dear life with tears falling on his pillow. I whispered "I sure am going to miss you" and he busted into tears.
I can't help it, I AM EMOTIONAL in every sense of the word some times! I did not let him see my tears but as I layed there thought, this could be the last time I watch him fall asleep, this could be the last time I touch him. Then I immediately began praying that if these were the "lasts" I would have with him that Lord you would have to make sure he brushes his teeth everyday and Lord you will have to protect him and Lord you this and Lord you that. What in the world is wrong with me?? I know I am perfectly normal but I've got to get over this!!!
Roger and I are fixing to have an amazing trip. I'm being silly.....but very honest.

While we are eating at the top of the Space Needle, visiting Japanese Gardens, watching raw fish being tossed thru the air at the open market and taking some amazing pictures my children will be just fine and the Lord will watch over and protect all that needs protecting......right? Right!!

Now, I feel much better!

Night, night :)
