It's official |
Yesterday I booked my ticket to California. Squeal. I'm so excited. Now here's the big news. I also booked tickets for the kids. They don't know, it will be an Easter surprise!
My husband is attending a conference in San Diego so I arranged for a my mother to come watch them and decided to go along. This is a huge trip for me, seeing as I live in Eastern Canada and never go anywhere. (It's going to take 12 hours to get there) It was going to be a nice time for me to write, sit at the pool and watch the pool boys, and a nice quiet time for me and hubby. I told the kids maybe next year I'd take them to Cuba (if I sell some more books LOL) Then I got to thinking, they'd certainly enjoy California more. Disneyland..San Diego Zoo...shopping.. So at the last minute, and I mean the very last minute...I was sitting in the chair at the travel agency when I blurted out, book two more tickets with that.
So there goes my romantic trip with hubby. but what we decided was that we would go to Cuba alone and get the sitter then. Yes....Alone....no I won't change my mind at the last second and bring the kids. LOL
You know though, I enjoy being with them so much. Alex makes me laugh every single day and Allison fills my life with rainbows and butterflies. They make me so happy and in the big scheme of things they are only home with us for such a short time. In 5 years Alex will be off to college and then Allison is right behind him. I know that sounds so far away, but it's not. Those years will fly by in a blur and I'll wonder where they want. Okay I'm getting all mushy and weepy.

I'm sure the kids would enjoy the zoo and Disneyland more; a good choice on your part. What a nice thing to say about your kids.

Cathryn that is so cool. And your right the kids will be grown before you know it. LOL I didnt think I would survive those teenage years, and now I would love to have them back. You and the family are going to have a great time! Now I just wished I lived in San Diego. Hugs, ML

Thanks Everyone! I told the kids and they cried they are so excited. Mark got up early the other day and went downstairs and found our son on the internet looking at pics of Knots berry farm.
