Late this evening, Darin and I leave for Boston......without the children! This will be the first trip we have ever taken without our children. Darin's parents are flying in tonight to stay with them while we are away. I am having some mixed emotions about this trip....a BIG part of me is thrilled to have a few days alone with my husband and some dear friends. On the other hand, I have never been away from them for more than 48 hours and Dane is a bit of a mama's boy. I know they will be fine and well cared for(actually I think Darin's parents will spoil them rotten), but I am still nervous about Dane being whiny and sad. Wish us luck, and pray that Dane is too distracted to notice we are away.

Aww..Mer, have a good time! Every parent needs a getaway without kids...I'm in dire need of that myself after this one comes. It's hard to concentrate on your spouse when kids are around sometimes. Take full advantage and have a great time!
