A Weekend Away
Dave and I are in Nashville, IN with Jerry and Jaime this weekend. Brown County is so beautiful and it is such a blessing to have a weekend away from the kids and see Jerry and Jaime. I have missed to kids TERRIBLY!! I cried when we left Grandpa and Grandma's house without them, I cried when our plane left Iowa soil and I cried when our wheels touched down in Indiana. We are only away for 4 nights and 3 days. How am I going to make it for 10 DAYS when we go to Maui in February? Seriously, is there a mom out there who feels my pain? Why is it that there are days with our kids that make us crazy, yet when we're away from them we're out of our minds with missing them? Is motherhood just a constant state of crazy? I know time away is important for me and important for Dave and I, so I am purposing to enjoy every minute. Which I am! However, I can't wait to snuggle with Layla and squeeze Cooper's chunky little legs to make him giggle. And, I know that when I return to Iowa and leave Dave in Indiana for 4 days of meetings, my sanity will once again be called into question!

Oh yes, I can completely understand what you mean! I went out for drinks the other night after volleyball and was missing that I wasn't putting them down for bed!!! It's almost like a piece of you is missing when your kids aren't with you. But, yes, it is SO important to have some husband and wife time - I think it only makes your time with the kids that much better. Sanity is a GOOD THING!!!
