Empty House

It has been almost a week since I've sent my daughters to Texas to stay with my mom for track-out.  Two more weeks to go and I miss them so much...

Last night my mother called and asked if my brother could babysit the girls overnight at his house.  Now I love and trust my brother, who is a very responsible adult; however, he is my little brother and he is not a parent himself.  I was torn but the girls really wanted to go and he really wanted to spend some quality time with them.  I only called once last night, to wish them good-night.  Then I really had to let go.  Is this how it's going to feel as they are growing up?

All my plans for a romantic weekend getaway with HM?  Out the window (he's recovering from a horrible case of food poisoning anyway).  All my plans to re-stain the kitchen cabinets?  Well, maybe I should do that one so I can take my mind off worrying about my children...
