Tomorrow Landon leaves bright and early for scout camp and I am already missing him. I know, I'm pretty pathetic, but he has never really been away from home without me and it will be for a whole week.
Rob's dad will be there for a few days and then
Rob will take his turn hanging out, but I can't. I offered to go, but Rob said I wouldn't really be welcome! My only consolation is that Thursday night is "Family Night" and
believe me I will be there, probably early, with a bursting hug for my guys, and
definitely with camera in tow. What will it be like when Landon goes on his mission for two years? Has a mother ever hid herself in her son's bag so she could secretly go and take care of her missionary? I am already planning this escapade and I will probably try it when Lauren goes to college. No one will notice a mother hanging around right? I could cook, clean, do the laundry, and be a pretty good matchmaker. Sorry. It's just I love my kids, and in reality I probably need them much more than they need me. These new experiences are awesome and they are fully ready for them. I just need to sit back, trust in God, in my children, and enjoy how excited they are when they come home and tell me all about their new experiences and all the new friends they make! Being a mom is the BEST!!!
