Off to St. George
I am sitting here being sad.....I just sent Brittyn out the door to St. George until Sunday. My parent and siblings and families all went down today. With Trent being gone again I just could not bring myself to load my three kiddos and do it on my own. So, Brittyn was heartbroken when she found out that everyone was going but us....my sweet parents offered to take her and room, feed, care for....etc. She has been counting down the days and was all packed yesterday afternoon. When 11:00 rolled around this morning I was having issues. I know she will be cared for, loved and have so much fun but it is so hard knowing she is so far without me. I loaded her in my dads car with her cousin Leah (hope they get along...cuz you never know with those two) she started to cry and tell me how much she is gonna miss me. Me, wanting to cry and tell her just to stay home had to be strong and hold it together because I am not going to let her be sad. She wiped them all away and they drove off. I got into my car and started to cry....are we as moms all like this or am I just crazy??

I still cry, well tear up when Mal goes far I remember last yr when she went to camp it was hard. When she came back and I saw her come of the bus I started to cry. I was trying to hide it but she "let that one go" You are a great Mom Jana it shows how much you care.
No you are not crazy...I feel the same whenever any of my kids leave for whatever reason. Girls camp, EFY (c0ming up this next week) - it is just a part of being a mom. It is just a way of you knowing how much you love your kids. Have fun with your boys. Brittyn seems to be having a great time here.
Our girl is getting so big. You should post the pic of her with the mustache that Brenna took of her in St. George. I'm sure she's having a blast. Being away from parents are good growing-up experiences for kids. It's just good that she's in good hands. Also, you should post the pic of Beau with the watermelon and Robbie with his TV. We have funny (some would say strange)kids. I love them, and love/miss you.
To all of you who read my comments....Big Daddy is Trent. I filled out his stuff so I had to give him something other then his name to be funny! Love you T!!
