It was awful. I thought I was going to throw up and pass out at the same time. But in the end, I made it and so did he and I am sooooooooo grateful for the time now. You did awesome!

An awful lot of mom's are just like you. And more often than not, the kids react just like yours did, too! I am glad they had a good day. As another mom of twins, I realize now how much I needed those two days a week to get things done and to just rest! Relax and enjoy yourself!

They are one of my favorite charities/organizations and do such great work and are so important! <br /><br />Also, I totally understand the separation anxiety.

It sounds like you conquered the situation!Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14823478092216327720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6368262301012259938.post-38393065267205073732009-11-20T21:18:48.840-05:002009-11-20T21:18:48.840-05:00Good for you!
