I can breathe

I made it. I feel like I can finally breathe. It's like I jumped off the high dive and was under water for longer than I thought I would be. It's like coming to the surface and gasping desperately for air. That's what I feel like.

Keith is home after being gone for ten days. I was definitely holding my breath for way too long. Getting a little blue in the face sometimes. Thinking I was never going to surface.

Breathe. I survived being home alone for TEN days with a toddler and a newborn.

Keith is never taking a trip without me again.

congrats andrea! Sorry I couldn't come down. We have had a sick couple of weeks. Lincoln had an ear infection and now he has chicken pox. So that's the last thing you want to be exposed to.

You are amazing. Amen to the last line. I'd like a vacation WITH Layne and we can leave the kids with Grandma.....
