hi ho, hi ho...

it's off to vail i go.

i've been planning a ski event for my brokers, their colleagues, and our clients - a large group of high-level real estate execs from across the nation.  it starts tomorrow.  although this is an annual event, the coordinating still kicks me in the butt each time.  i am TIRED!  and the "fun" has only begun...

harrison and jer are going to grandma and papa's house while i'm away.  i'm sure some separation anxiety will occur.  for me - not for harrison.  : )  i'm having a really difficult time with the thought of being away for 4 days.  i guess we'll just see how it goes.  denver is only 2 hours back down the mountain if i just HAVE to watch him sleep, or give him kisses, or tickle his belly, or wake him up in the morning with singing...  don't know if my brokers would be too thrilled with that, though. 

maybe if i "whistle while i work" it will make the time go faster...

Have fun! It's hard to leave your children! But you and he will both do fine! Let us know how it goes!!!

I wish I could tell you that it gets easier, but I still hate to be away from my kids! You're right- keeping a good attitude will help, and you might as well enjoy yourself while you're away! Besides, these times just with Daddy are VERY special for the both of them! I'm totally jealous that you are so close to the slopes.

I would absolutely LOVE to go to Vail right now!! I know though... believe me, leaving your kids behind is the hardest thing to do EVER. It feels like someone is suffocating me when I leave them. STILL. But it is always so good for me ( I appreciate them more and vice versa). AND amazingly enough, God always takes good care of them while I am gone. Have fun. Take pictures of yourself so you can post your skiing on the blog for us!
