Hey JR, don't think you can worry about her saying no to the beach trip. It does suck that she wouldn't join ya'll, but I've no doubt you'll make the time Awesome for your kids!
I'd take pride in being a rock for your children. That should be about as uplifting as it gets! I know when D and I went away together it was like all of the stress was lifted away. We had an awesome time. I think the trip is something you should really be looking forward to!
Done any GAL stuff recently? May be a good time to get out and take some focus off the situation.
