Fun with Dad

I had my first trip alone from Collin when I went to Austin, TX for a grants conference. I admit, waking up whenever I wanted, not having to worry about diapers or someone else's well being was a little nice. But every time I heard Collin's tiny voice say "Mama" on the phone I had to steady myself from tears. After five days it was nice to come home to my sweet little guy who likes to pull my face to his and touch my nose, a sort of Collin kiss. Mike was also relieved to see me (just because he loves me right!) it may also be that working full-time, finishing up remodels on the house and taking care of a toddler is, well hard...

They did seem to have lots of fun though and I was happy to come to a house that didn't need 12 hours of heavy cleaning.

It's all so bittersweet isn't it! I just recently took my first trip away without Chad or the boys and it was SO bittersweet! So good to come home! Glad they had a good time though and that the house wasn't a wreck when you got back!
