back with my babies!!!

after seven long days and nights, i'm finally back with my babies!!

i knew it would be hard, but it was even harder than i expected. we left caleb first, and as i walked to the van, i seriously cried...bawled...hyperventilate kine cry. we then took brynna to dave's parent's house so that his dad could drive us to the airport. after leaving brynna, i had to stifle my crying since we were in the car with dave's dad and i didn't want him to feel weird.

the week went by slowly, of course, but at least the conference itself was good, got me excited to be an avid teacher, and taught me different strategies to use. every time i looked at my phone, and the picture of brynna and caleb on my screen, i got sad all over again. thank goodness i at least had dave there with me...if i was by myself, i think i would have been a lot worse!!!!

of course, though, here at home caleb was living it up with his one on one attention from my mom. he sometimes said hi to me on the phone, but more often was engaged in other activities and couldn't be bothered with talking to me...lol. brynna had some rough nights but overall was okay...at least she didn't get sick!!!

coming home to them was the best thing ever...being able to smoosh my face into their necks and smother them with kisses!!! caleb seemed more interested in seeing brynna than us at first, but i think he is happy to have us back so there's triple the attention. brynna was sleeping when we got to her, but she woke up and gave us her smiles and laughs and it was all good.

now we have one week to live it up with them and spend time together before it's back to work time.
