"I can think clearly now, the kids are gone."
A few months ago Doug came home and announced he had to go to DC for some classes.
Julie: "Ooh, are you going to take me."
Doug: "Well, I'll be busy all day Friday and Saturday so you'd be alone."
Julie: "And?"
Doug: "You wouldn't mind?"
Julie: incredulous stare
In the end, my dear mother was willing to come and sit; tickets were bought; we kissed our birthday boy and flew into the wild blue yonder. Less than two hours later, we were in DC.
I was the crazy woman taking pictures on the tarmac, out the window of the plane, inside the plane, and anything else mechanically relate so that I could show "the boys."
I found myself seeing the city through their eyes.
Seems like I can easily leave, but I can't get them off my mind.
