I feel so blessed. I truly have amazing friends. The other day Jody offered to take the kids for a day (an entire day), so that I could get some stuff done around the house and relax. At first, I'm embarrassed to say, I enjoyed it a little. It doesn't happen much for me to spend time away from the kids- not with a husband in residency. But by the afternoon, I missed them. I wanted them to be back home, with me. I think it's good to be apart from one another once in a while, so that we can feel that way and remember how much we need one another. The kids had a blast, but I think they were ready to come home, too. It's fun to spend time with friends, but when friends spend too much time together, they get on each other's nerves. It's true! I remember feeling that way about my friends. It doesn't mean you love them any less, you just have to recharge (alone) and then come back to each other, as if nothing ever happened. Jody took these pictures for me. What a great friend she is!
