So I'm leaving bright and early on an airplane tomorrow morning. Am I excited?
Oh Yeah!
I'm more than a little excited.
On Thursday I fly to SLC and a writing group friend is picking me up from the airport.
Then we drive to the Marriott Hotel in Provo where we get to hang out, write, do whatever we want.
On Friday and Saturday I get to go to the best writing conference ever--the LDS Storymakers Writers' Conference.
Then Sunday my wonderful in-laws will take me back to the airport so I can fly back home.
I get Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and most of Sunday kid-free.
I haven't had more than three or four hours of kid-free since last year's conference.
And at last year's conference I was pregnant and had contractions through the entire weekend.
Yes, it has been a year since I had anything other than the hours of 1 AM to 6 AM to myself. And sometimes I haven't even had that.
So a BIG THANK YOU to those taking my kids these days so I can go to the conference and Nathan can go to school.
And another HUGE THANK YOU to Nathan for letting me skip off to the conference and being willing to have the kids all to himself after he gets out of school. I know it isn't easy to have someone else's kids all day (believe me I know! That's how I paid for the conference and the plane ticket!) so I really, really, really appreciate it Lori, Mary, and Kristy!
And Nathan, I know it isn't easy to have our own kids sometimes, so I owe you.
