I feel like the 6 day trip back home to Kansas City was the longest trip of my life, and I honestly couldn't wait to get back to see Keith and Mr. Meatball. I missed them so much! I think trips are never quite as fun without the whole gang, but I am still very grateful I had the opportunity to see my family before I start school and work. My nieces and nephews are getting so big! It's funny to think that just a week ago, I was NOT wanting to go back to KC for the sole purpose of kids and pregnancy everywhere, but honestly it made me grateful. Grateful for the fact that I am healthy, in a great marriage, and child free!! Ahh! To be able to sleep 10 hours a day, drink beers when I want, travel how I please, buy things for myself, and so on and so on.. My sister and my brother had their hands full. They were tired, grouchy, wore out from the screaming, and I just enjoyed myself! So in a way that trip made me feel a lot better. I am now making a vow to enjoy my child-free life while I can! I know this time won't last forever.
I hope everyone is doing well! I have a lot of catching up to do! :)

Great attitude! I'm glad you had fun...it sounds like it was exactly what you needed.
ReplyDeleteI agree...we will look back at this time in our lives and realize how good we had it, even though it doesn't feel that way all the time :)
