Kyan and Lola headed to Nebraska tonight with grandpa and grandma to spend the week!Saying goodbye at the airport was very bittersweet. I know they are in the best hands possible, while we are away, but it was so sad to know that I don't get to see them each and every morning when I wake up or take out their dreams before they go to bed. Lola was happy as a clam and waved good-bye with a big smile on her face, while Kyan was much more emotional. When I first said goodbye, he had huge crocodile tears in his eyes. Crushed me. So I got back out of the car and just squeezed him as tight as I could and whispered how much I loved him. I asked him to be brave and he ever so slightly nodded that he could do it as tears were streaming down his little face. As I drove away, he was still upset, but I was hoping that once I was out of sight, he would be distracted by all the coolness of both his grandparents that he would forget he missed us!
I asked the kids today what they were looking forward to doing while they were in Nebraska, here is what they said:
park
zoo (I am secretly hoping they wait for me to get there to go, just saying)
catching fireflies and fish
going to the water park
getting big kisses
going on a horse ride
playing fetch with lucy
going shopping
loving my grandpa and grandma
And speaking of loving their grandpa and grandma, I also asked them what they love about them:
getting big hugs from them
they get us applesauce donuts
sleeping with them
share and care with them
playing toys with them
their cars
going to work with them
I am excited for the kids and their week with grandpa and grandma and so thankful that my parents were willing to take them so the hubs and I could get away! They are going to be spoiled rotten and probably won't want to come home with me when I go pick them up!
Miss them like crazy already.

ah!! This made me sad. I SO understand how you feel, Evy would be just like lola, but Jake would be the one crying. Every time we leave him with my parents or my sister he loses it. It's so hard. Love those boys. I hope you guys have a blast! Big hugs friend!
I actually read this last night & had the biggest tears in my eyes (over the Kyan part)- somethin about our sweet boys "crushes" me too.
You said it best- they are definitely in GOOD hands. I'd get on a plane with them just for applesause donuts alone!!
Xoxo
Hopefully they're having a blast now and you're getting some R&R!

Were you so freaked out putting them on the plane? It's just so weird to be without your kids for a long period of time, especially if it's the first time. :) Hope you are having a blast this week with the hubs. :)
Awh, big hugs, friend! I'm sure they're having a blast!!
Big hugs to you girl. This has to be so hard, but sounds like your kiddos are having a wonderful time with their fabulous papa and gram. I have been MIA on here for a few months now, but woke up and thought about you. Miss reading your posts and miss you. xoxo
