the best part about going away is coming home

I spent the past 24 hours on a little getaway to visit a girlfriend. And it was so nice to get away for those hours and not think about what the kids needed, and what we'd all eat, and who needed a nap. So good to have uniterrupted conversations, and eat at a restaurant and not have to rush through, or pick a hundred pieces of food off the floor. So nice to watch a movie from beginning to end without listening for cries on the baby monitor.

It was all so nice. Quiet. Relaxing. But today, my car could not drive fast enough to get back to these boys.
