Today I am missing this...

My boys are away on father and son's camp this weekend. An annual event for the wards of Weston-super-Mare, and something my husband in particular loves. I find it hard to let the boys go for the weekend, and although they make a terrible mess packing to go, and I'm glad to say goodbye as they drive off of the drive, I usually want them back within a few minutes. So today I am morning for the messy rooms, the noise and the endless piles of lego bricks left on the floor. I do hope my boys are dry and warm and having fun. I guess these are the experiences of boy hood I want my sons to have. It's just a small sacrifice on my part for a greater good.

At least I have Nathaniel at home, and believe me at the moment he makes enough noise and mess to compensate for the loss of Jarom, Tayler and Jason combined. Plus no early morning study for me today as Nathaniel had me up at 5:30 simply to fix his breakfast! Roll on nap time! Oh, the joys of motherhood!
