...yes and no. We are seeing and doing so much, but I am ready to go home! There is just something about feeling isolated that is really hard for me. Also, I feel like I don't have a good sense of purpose here. On the up side, I am spending more quality time with my girls, which is probably just what I need. I probably have a tendency to get caught up in all my activities at home.
I am going home this weekend for my good friend, Lisa's, wedding. I am really looking forward to it, but I am having a really hard time feeling good about leaving Mark here with 3 kids. I know he will be fine, and truthfully, he doesn't seem concerned at all, but I just would be sad if he left me in a strange place for 2 days. Is it just a mom thing?

Traci--GO and have a GOOD time! He will have a great time with the girls. You really don't get to do this everyday. Enjoy the flight home (without any little people to keep busy). When I left Drew in DC he had a great time and I think was happy to have the opportunity with our kids.
That's just what I needed to hear...thanks Andrea!
Traci- I love your honesty! I know it's hard to be in a new place. I think I feel like the best mom though, for those first few months of a new area. When your only friends are your kids, you just really get to know their little selves and they think you are really cool for hanging with them. Then the new-ness just wears off and you get busy again and sadly enough, they are your kids again instead of your only friends. Guess that's one advantage to being in DC. But have a blast going by YOURSELF to WA!
yeah, i think that it is a mom thing. i think the moment we become mothers we are blessed (cursed) with guilt for everything to do with our kids!
if you are like me, you will probably cry on the way there because you miss your kids and cry on the back because you have to go home!:)
