And she is OUT of here !!!

Heidi's cousin Mark and his daughter were up from Texas to visit us while on their way out east to see family. We Love having them here, they are one of those family members you can just be around all the time (we wish they lived closer). Well Sunday night while Mark was making plans for the trip east, I asked if Heidi could go along, she had not seen her family out there for 10 years. Mark, said SURE !!! At first Heidi was dragging her feet, wanting to go, but wanting to stay here. Finally she let go and said she would go. She was up till 3am packing, and was gone a few hours later. She cried so hard, and so long, saying how much she was going to miss us. While shopping late at Wally-World picking up those last min items, she bought each one of the kids a new toy. The kids will miss her a lot, but we know God will keep her safe and bring her back to us. As for me, this should be an interesting week, running the daycare and being both mom and dad in one this week. I have the week planned with activities to keep the kids busy, and less on how much they are missing mommy. Last night we went roller skating, and tonight, I have a special surprise for them, that is IF these blasted thunderstorms don't ruin it for us, 6:30am and we are already under tornado watches for today.
