Tomorrow is the day I've been dreading all week.I leave my baby for the first time over night....EVER!!
I honestly don't know how Sarah is doing it for 12 days - but I'm braving it for one night.
Here's the story. We are taking our youth group to Dallas for a conference on Saturday. When making these plans, I didn't think that the result would be leaving Zoe with a set of grandparents. The grandparents are the not problem here. I am very blessed that Zoe has two sets that we can turn to last minute!! The problem is that my heart it already breaking at the very thought of leaving her.
Let me be honest and get down to the nitty-gritty with you.....
I have thought of every reason why I should stay at home with her instead of go with the group.....at this point my Mommy heart is breaking. I can't even imagine how it will be when she goes to college, or Heaven forbid, get married!!!! YIKES!!! I may have to pack myself in her luggage. I promise that I'm not an over-protective Mom, I just LOVE hanging out with that little snotty-nose, always smiling, bright ray of sun. The Lord knew what He was doing when He gifted her to me to be her Mommy. She's incredible. Not smack in the middle of my world, but a really good balance to my world.
Anyway.....we shall see!!!

Hey Amy!! I just found your blog. I love finding new ones!! I never wanted to leave my kids when they were little. It's hard to do, but I bet she's in good hands...or she was...I think you are probably back by now.
Mommy,
I know that you didn't want to leave me for your overnight trip, but I was in good hands with Grammy and Mawma and Papa, I had fun with them. I also heard you say when you got back how the Lord worked on your girls and I know that you were right where you needed to be. But welcome home mommy and daddy, I did miss you as you saw when you came into my room on Sunday morning. I love you, Zoe.
She told me to write this, honest. Love you, dad.
Hey Amy - how'd it go?
