It will be fine Dawn...fine!!!!

Here is T at age 5.



Here is P at 2 years old.


This is T and P Christmas 2007 decorating
Christmas cookies.



How far they have come in just 5 years. They leave tomorrow and I don't think I will do well at the Airport. They haven't has this much visit time with their dad since 2003 and he only had them 8 days (was suppose to have them 6 wks) but that is another story all in itself. They are upstairs in their beds and I just had to go in and look a them sleeping. Don't you love that. They look sooo cute and warm and not yelling, crying. fighting or just bugging in general. That's when they are at their best don't you think. Well I do so sue me! ;)

Today is the last day of school and they are both so excited about it and plus they get to ride on an airplane tomorrow. I will miss those little ones. Glad to have time alone for more than just one day when they spend the night with a friend, nooooo sirree 4 weeks. Four weeks of me wondering if they are ok, do they want to talk to me and he won't let them call? Are they having fun. Yep...four relaxing weeks for me! Aaaaaaah Well I will at least try and relax. I will miss them terribly but hope they have fun. They deserve a vacation and Oregon is beautiful and they will love it. See...I'm already relaxing. Aaaaaaaaah

I have tons to do today before we leave for Chicago. I'll stay there over the weekend with the hubby and #1 woohoo! Ok you all might want to call and see if I am alright because #1 is almost as bad as #4&#5 put together, just in an older way. Aiy Yi Yi Oh well I guess I have done enough pouting for now. I'm off to pack, vacuum laundry and about a million other things I have to do before we leave at 4:00. Wish me luck! And that I don't sob at the gate when the kids get on the plane.

First - it shows you posted at 2:47 am, I hope that's not accurate.

Second - It will be okay. They WILL be okay. I just keep thinking that. Something would be wrong if you weren't concerned. However, I understand the level of concern that you have and I'm there with you. Even though I didn't birth those babies I they're still mine too. I wish I could be there tomorrow, but then there would just be two red eyed snot nosed women crying in the airport and that would not be good.

Enjoy the time you'll have with out them. Spend some time in Chicago and venture out. There is so much there. Catch the train and go down town. You'll love it. I can't wait until you're there and I can visit.

I'll call you tonight I want to here about the response or lack of that you received.

Love Ya!!!
