So this week is here. I have known about it for months. I PAID for this to happen. My first born child is outta here for the week. I will miss this generous hugger, I will not miss his unmistakable scream, I might enjoy leftovers (if I decide to cook) that won't get gobbled up because he is not here. I am full of mixed emotions.
I drove him out to the middle of nowhere this morning and as long as he doesn't get kicked out he should be incommunicado until Friday at 1:00. We will all look forward to his homecoming and will celebrate this by celebrating Will's 9th birthday! It's all in the timing people.
The Lonestar Leadership Academy should be teaching my boy a thing or two about being a leader and a group member. He will get to see a BUNCH of cool places in and around Dallas and hopefully meet some new friends. As I was walking him to the bus today he did mention that he noticed a few cute girls. Who knows, maybe he'll come home with a long distance girlfriend? That is a scary thought for sure!
OK, off to snuggle with the young one and try to think of something good for two and a half people to have for dinner.
