Mommy vacation

Jordan is taking over Mommy duty while I attend a wedding in Nebraska this weekend. I’ll be gone for 3 days. Woohoo! I have never been away from the kids this long. In fact, since Dec 17th, 2003, I’ve never been alone for more than a few hours at a time. Wait, that’s a lie. Jordan and I did go on a 8 day cruise alone; thanks Mom! While I’m so excited to have some time alone, I’m afraid that I’m going to be lousy at it. It’s really hard to deprogram out of mommy mode. I’ll try to supress the urge to hold all the crying babies on the plane and just put on my headphones and enjoy the inflight movie (for once!). I’m not worried about Jordan with the kids at all. I think he will be suprised just how chaotic things can get, but he’s so calm under fire that in all honesty I think he’ll manage it even better than I do….sigh.
