July 23: An hour ago, Andrew and Granny flew away on what is Andrew’s first trip without his parents. He’s heading to Texas to spend the next few days at Granny and Grandad’s house. Sylvia, Bryan, and I will be joining him on Saturday.
Andrew was excited beyond words. All morning long he wanted to go to the airport. I’m excited too! It’s fabulous that he can be spreading his wings and having one-on-one fun with his grandparents. And I’ll get to focus on Sylvia for a few days. Focus on Sylvia and (hopefully) find a little extra space in my life to breathe.
Now I can turn to my five-month-old and ask, “Darling, what would you like to do this afternoon?”
Althea, Bryan, Andrew, and Sylvia
