That was the only analogy I could think of at that moment. Honestly there will be that certain 'snap' to their trip when they & I get together in about a week that will be gone, and with kids their excitement level will only stay peaked so long before it becomes just a memory. A good friend suggested to me last night to ask the W if I could just have a day out of the rotation, this is a great idea and will pose it to her.
It's like some people were talking on Mike's post about the things that will be missed the 'firsts', to really experience that feeling first hand yesterday well it sucked. School good point, that is something that is a 'first' never to happen again, like my D11 it's her 'first' year in middle school, so I can totally understand where you are at with your D just starting that is so cool I remember both of my girls 'firsts' days of school...this is exactly my point, this is what is forgotten about oh the selfishness of it all...
I agree have made some good steps forward, and it will be about her for awhile longer I had told you guys this would be difficult on her as with most mom's so that is why I made a choice to make it all about her and her feelings so I enabled her abit and not to think of my feelings by helping her through this so kinda responsible for my own position and feeling the way I do.
I was good by the time I went to bed, was tired had a quick chat with the man upstairs and then tossed & turned most of the night, but I had it too hot in the house so my bad on that but all is good today so far.
