I think I am going to use your suggestion of bring a photo or two of her to brag with :) Great idea!Elizabethhttp://twobuerglers.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022170462041344792.post-232828608146658122012-04-05T08:35:30.500-04:002012-04-05T08:35:30.500-04:00You're so right!

Thank you for your words of wisdom!Elizabethhttp://twobuerglers.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022170462041344792.post-52236932105285190252012-04-04T23:49:27.824-04:002012-04-04T23:49:27.824-04:00My opinion as a mom of two now would be to leave h...My opinion as a mom of two now would be to leave her. If I had one kid, I'd probably feel torn like you and not as decisive. However, now that I can just comment on what YOU should do and not think of leaving my Elsa or Daniel... its easier! If you can text your husband throughout the day, bring a slew of baby photos in some sort of brag book form to keep the friends happy and connected to Evie, AND you know you can actually pray and think and be calm, you should. If you will want to drive home in the middle of the night/conference, that's a sign you should not go or should take her.<br /><br />And an idea you didn't consider - if you have more than one kid, losing nights' of sleep is a bigger deal than with one kid. This might be a golden opportunity to do something with Evie and your friends and a special memory. It won't be easier with a bigger family.<br /><br />Right now I am so starved for alone time that I'd probably go alone.<br />I cannot even make cohesive blog comments I need so much alone time.<br /><br />So - that's my idea.Bethanyhaidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022170462041344792.post-67026310722740479312012-04-04T23:42:54.907-04:002012-04-04T23:42:54.907-04:00Leave her.

Not because I don't love them, but because since we are together all.the.time, it's so nice to have a chance to miss them. And it's good for Eric to get a chance to take care of her. I know when I'm around, I am always telling Adam what to do and how to do it. The times he's been totally in charge (mostly when I've been in the hospital), it's amazing that everything is just fine without me. He does things his own way and it's good for him to get a chance to do that without me hovering over him. Plus, if you leave her, you get to miss her and then you'll be so happy to get back to her!! Some time away from the kids with girlfriends? Totally totally leave her. Can you tell I'm a little jealous of the thought of a few days without kids? Maybe I'll do my own retreat......Lisa L.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4022170462041344792.post-7028070066272941512012-04-04T22:28:42.751-04:002012-04-04T22:28:42.751-04:00Leave her...and we can pump together..haha.
