The kids are finally asleep…

My wife is going to be away most of the weekend accompanying her brother in New Jersey. They’ll leave in the dead of night around 4 or 5 AM and be back on Sunday night.

The kids, Princess and Permasmile, finally fell asleep about half an hour ago so the wife and I are spending some quiet time together before we pass out from exhaustion.

I never like to be separated from any of the family by so much distance. Not that I feel afraid that something terrible might happen, but I tend to feel the absence, the sense of someone
missing and I abhor the vacuum even more than Nature does.

It also doesn’t help that a fairly sizable portion of me really wishes we could all go together. I live for long road trips in unfamiliar territory. With two kids and no time to get all of our ducks in a row, however, I know things are better the way they stand.

Now I’ll just have to figure out how to keep the little ones entertained tomorrow.
