Sigh!

I love my family.  I do not like being away from them.  So tonight I am a wee bit depressed.  Okay.  I am more than a wee bit. 

Tomorrow, I am off to North Carolina to a Homeschooling Convention.

To try to convince people that BIBLIOPLAN is the BEST homeschooling history/literature/geography program on the market.

And I believe it IS the best homeschooling history/literature/geography program on the market.

So it is NOT the Convention that is making me depressed.

It is leaving my family behind.

Trying to explain to Aaron that I am going to be gone for two sleeps and three long days when he gets upset if Papa puts him in the bathtub instead of Mama is a bit hard on my heart.



Sigh!

I love my family.

I'm going to miss them.

One night away isn't THAT bad but two nights and three FULL days....

Yuck.

Did I say I am a wee bit depressed??

I doubt I will be blogging while I am gone.

When I come back.... I have some stories to share.

Some really cool stories.

One of them that goes with THIS PICTURE.



Yes - those are my sons.  Two looking a bit on the wild side and one wearing wings. 

It is a story definitely worth hearing.

Sigh again.

I'm going to miss that wild looking bunch!!

  1. Oh my goodness Julia, I am the same way! I absolutely hate to be away from my boys. My first day away from Caleb when I was adopting Elijah, I cried like a baby. I'm already thinking I am going to have to take Elijah with me on at least one of my trips this time because I have NEVER been away from him and I don't know if I can do it. LOL! I'm praying for you and I know your kiddos are missing their Mama too. But that will make your homecoming that much more sweeter! Hugs my friend!

  3. Awww sweetie! I know how you feel! I went to a one night ladies retreat at a friends house and took my 15 month old with me and my older 3 stayed with daddy....I felt like I'd missed so much. I missed them all so much! You have my prayers over the next few days. ~Hugs~
