She has found the dog food.

I did it.....

Did what ? I took my 4 1/2 year old and her 9 month old baby sister on an airplane, from Virginia to Nevada all by myself !!! Despite some MAJOR airline delays, and some looks from strangers as to why I would do this, we did it. I love knowing I can handle most situations that are thrown my way. I am trying to teach Maddison through example to just roll with it and to not freak out when things don't go as planned. Some things are out of our control and I really try to make the best out of every situation. I think after living in the Caribbean for 2 years, I have figured out how little we need to survive !!

Jason had to work trauma night shifts, so the girls and I packed up and headed off to Grandma's house !! We had an amazing trip and got to see so many relatives. We missed Daddy, however we miss him all the time when we are here !!

(Side note: I also managed to pack our bags to go in an hour !! I had the wrong date in my head and at 7:00 at night when my Mom reminded me I was leaving at 6 am the next morning I had to hussle. Again, I did not panic, I just packed. It was a great help that all the clean laundry was folded nicely in the laundry baskets !!)
