The kids left early this morning to fly to their dad's. In a way I'm excited, they haven't seen him since mid June and in a way I'm soooo nervous. DD left me a message on my cell phone (darned quiet ring - missed the call) saying the flight was fine and they were there safe. She asked me to call her back and now the line is busy. I'm trying not to worry. Everything went very smoothly this morning, kids were so happy and looking forward to a wonderful visit, American Airlines was very accomidating and even took my son's anaphlaxis in stride. I got super big hugs when they boarded and I sat and waited for their plane to pull away. As soon as it backed up I felt like I was about to throw up on the spot, but I was fine. I didn't even cry. I'm now in a bit of a frenzy because I leave for my Christmas visit tomorrow morning and I like to come home to a spotless house ;). I also haven't packed any clothes yet because I was so occupied with getting the kids ready. I can't wait to talk to them, I miss them already!

I sent my boys away on a trip with their Dad at noon. I wish i could say there were no tears, but I can't I have cried all day. Even while at work this morning. Glad I only had to work half a day. They will be back Sunday morning and I will get to see them then, but I feel so lost. Tomarrow I plan to do some baking to occupy my time. Merry Christmas to Everyone! Hugs, Brenda
