The support system I have is second to none!
I have a feeling the kids and Will read my blog last week, because all of a sudden they’re treating me like a queen! Yes, it seems like my entire family is stepping in this week to make sure I’m well taken care of 
To celebrate our wedding anniversary, Will is insisting we leave the kids (and the shop!) and take a little trip by ourselves for a few days. It took some convincing at first – will the kids and Grettle really be able to handle things on the home front? – but in the end, how could I say no? The man of my dreams is whisking me off for a romantic weekend in the Big City… just hope I can find my old high heels!
Of course, the key to leaving town and feeling good about it is being prepared. I’ve left lots of extra jars on the shelf, which should make things easier for the kids to serve the customers… especially when they’re all alone. After all, Grettle will probably have her hands full with Pearl a lot of the time.
That reminds me… better remind Grettle to make sure Peter eats. He’s a growing boy, and he gets cranky and slow if he doesn’t keep his energy level up with lots of snacks. I’m mostly worried about Safi, though. I know Pearl and Peter will be fine without me for a few days, but Safi seems a bit lonely lately. I’ll have to remind Peter to make sure he stays close to his sister.
The moral of the story? It’s okay to ask for help… and it’s okay to take a few days off! We moms and dads have so much going on, so many people to take care of… it’s easy to forget we don’t always have to be superheroes.
Oops – gotta go!. Will’s packing up the car and I want to give the kids a few more instructions (and kisses!) before we leave…
