Initially, Brian and I were planning on going to New York last weekend. It was kind of a spur of the moment thing, but plans came together quickly and I was super excited about going, except thoughts of leaving just kept nagging at me. Brian was about to hit the purchase button when I said, "you know, this is really hard for me, leaving the kids." and I started to cry. So Brian, being the wonderful husband that he is, offered the more mom's-first-time-leaving-her-baby-friendly alternative of going away for one night only.
Well, those of you that know me know I'm really not a pansy, and you also know that New York is my dream, so me bailing out like that doesn't make much sense. So I've decided that maybe I was just being prompted to stay home because Carter was going to have a tough weekend. I don't know if I could have handled not being there when he was going through that.

way to go for listening to that little voice. i would've had a hard time to and trust me....i've been to nyc and it was AMAZING and i know you'll love it as long as your kids aren't sick and roughing it. you'll get your chance. points to brian for being so sweet and understanding!!!
Good thing you listened to your mommy voice in your head! Kids are only young for a short time...and they need you when they are sick! NY will always be there!
I promise when they're teenagers you won't have any trouble leaving them!
