The scene was the supper table when I explained to the boys that tomorrow night Mom would be gone, along with the night after that, to enjoy a weekend of cycling with girlfriends. They were kindof aware as I've been scurrying around the house, like Mothers do, to prepare for my departure. You know, pack for yourself AND prepare the family to survive without you: clean clothes, food, allergy meds, sitters.
Wellllll, their response was NOT quite what I expected! From the big and little guys came "party all night, party all night as they pushed their arms out and around doing a jig!" I DID join in their laughter and I AM glad I don't have to walk out the door as tears roll down their faces BUT WhAt TeRdS!
That's life amongst the herd....
