Sometimes you need to to take a break from being Mom and Dad and spend a little time just being you! Lest you forget who YOU are.
That is exactly what the husband and I did last night. We packed up the car with pretty much everything the girls own and took a 40 minute drive to drop of #1,2 AND 3. Yes, my brother and his fiancé were brave enough to take on #3 OVERNIGHT (she has a bit of a reputation)!
We then made the 40 minute return drive home and met up with friends to take the train into the city. We had a great time and even made it back home by midnight. It felt great to just be Bobbie and Roy for the night but coming home to an empty house, OUR empty house, felt strange. Peeking in to the kids rooms and seeing empty beds gave me a little ache in my heart, but the ache suspiciously disappeared when I realized no one would be waking me at 7!
Being a Mom is the best job in the world, the dream job I've always wanted...but being Bobbie is what I do best!
