I'm at the airport right now. When I was in line for security I watched this little boy cry, scream, and reach for his daddy as his daddy got in line. He apparently did NOT want his daddy to leave. His scene broke my heart a little at a time when I always miss Paul and Anna the most: at the airport. Tonight I left Paul and Anna home and Anna was a little resistant to let me go, (that's healthy) but certainly no carrying on. Just lots of promises of phone calls and return hugs and goodies. I usually drop her off at school and then catch a midday flight, and tonight I realized the routine of that makes it a little easier on both of us instead of me actually pulling out of the driveway. But when I saw that scene at the airport, I was grateful for Anna's independence. Because that kind of thing...would kill me or piss me off.
Anyway, crawfish! It was our ninth year of the Easter weekend crawfish boil. Lots of people, food, and jokes. I am detoxing from the cupcakes and cake. This time we had a slip n slide for the kids and water balloons for the adults. What, no one would have been drunk enough to stand for witnessing the reverse! Note to self: next time find biodegradable water balloons for easier clean up :)
We were missing a good bit of family members this year but we still had a good time. They even made it out to Kemah with Anna.
My God that kid partied hard ALL Weekend, starting with Friday morning (off from school). She even admitted a few times she was tired. My child, tired?! She was also off Monday so we used that as a recovery day of TV and healthy food in our PJ's.
What another great Easter weekend! Life is good!
