Childless.....

with nowhere to go! Except work that is (unfortunately)!
Yes... the boys are with grandma and grandpa Baer for 4 whole days! We left church a little early this morning and made the drive 150 miles north to meet my parents halfway to make the "swap." We had some lunch, the guys talked Jeeps, my mom and I talked "scentsy" and we headed back where we came from. Its bittersweet of course because any mom in this situation thinks she is going to bask in the peace and quiet while enjoying only having to pick up after one boy (instead of 3). But I was a blubbering idiot as soon as we got in the car to leave. What can I say....the little bugs are my everything. Thankfully we called several times this evening and the boys were having a great time. They napped on the way home so they were giving Grandpa a run for his money at 9pm, begging him to go "night swimming." I think he eventually broke down and got in with them.
On a sad note, I was twirling my curls like crazy on the drive up (like I usually do) and looked down at my brown shirt to see the ugliest thing----a gray hair! How could it be? Yes it was real and I was looking for every possible excuse for it not to be mine. I looked around the car searching for a passenger with a head of shoulder length, silver hair. But after seeing my husband look at me like I was insane I had to come to the conclusion that it was indeed mine. I have since ordered my husband to examine the back of my head to search for more of these unwanted visitors. He again looked at me like I was insane.
