Alone in Big World

(Photo of my eldest son by the bay. Taken by Tabitha Bird)

I'm going to be a soul Mom for two weeks while my man is away on business.

And here's the choice.

Feed kids, wipe kids, feed them again, wipe them again, kiss them, hug them, dry tears, separate them, find the lost lizard, take them to school, pick them up from school, feed them yet again, wipe them yet again, survive homework hell and 5pm Arsenic Hour, bath them, tuck them in and kiss them goodnight THEN find a good wine and a quiet book to maintain sanity.

OR
Do all of the above THEN try to fit in blogging and lose sanity...


Yeah, you know what I chose :)

So, love to all. But while I'm alone in the big world I am taking a break for two weeks until husband returns and I again have some ALONE time to blog. I will try to be on your blogs if I get the chance, but I hate throwing up a post here just for the sake of throwing up a post.
Know what I mean?

Back in two weeks.

  17. It is the most important role you would play in your entire life. Take it from a Grandma, it is so worthwhile that you would want to do it with your grandkids ---- all over again.
