Silence is golden

The greatest thing happened today! I took my child to spend some "quality time" with her grandparents in Tennessee for a couple of days. The hubby & I went to dinner alone & didn't have to feed, wipe the hands of, or act as personal entertainment/jungle gym for anyone else throughout the entire meal! It's SO QUIET in the house I'm not sure what to do with myself. I haven't heard anyone scream or cry or yell "NO!" in almost 24 hours. Do I miss my baby, yes of course! I'll miss her like crazy & will be really excited to see her again on Sunday. That feeling, however will not keep me from letting her enjoy time away from us and spend a few days getting spoiled beyond belief. I believe it's healthy to be apart a little bit & I love that she's totally fine doing it. Hey, she's not stupid, she knows how to work the system & get whatever she wants out of everyone she comes in contact with (except Mommy). Time alone with Grandparents is golden for her because she knows exactly what she can do the entire time...anything she wants!

"Woo-Hoo ~ Let the Spoiling Begin!"
