Happy Trails To Us

Well, we leave for Buffalo tonight and I am a bit nervous. The children have been so sick lately that I do not like leaving them. I know they will be in good hands and I trust the people they will be with so that is not an issue. It’s Mommy Guilt™.  

We got the oil changed and picked up some cold medicine. We also picked up some tights and underwear. We even went to the Evil Empire to do this. I have their clothes, toothbrushes, medicine, and underwear packed. I’m going to pack an overnight bag for us even though we are not planning on staying anywhere.  

The children have been talking about death and trying to understand what happens. Bethany said that “Grandmom is not with God.” It was kind of spooky. She said it with quite a bit of certainty.  

I got a very sweet card from the Homeschool group signed by quite a few people. I was very pleased and very flattered.

We are going to make a concerted effort to visit people, call people, and let people know how we feel and how much we care. No one is guaranteed tomorrow. I’m not going to let things slip away.
