Bye-Bye Grandma

Today my Mom left for Portugal on vacation. While I'm excited for her I can't help but admit that I'm sad for me and Carly. Mom will be gone for 8 days and we'll miss her being around! It's been so special to hang around with her so much since Carly's been born. She's been so much fun to have around. Not just because she's so helpful -- just having her near makes me feel comfortable and at ease. I've always been an independant person. I've never been the "I want my Mommy" type, but since the birth of my first child I am certainly more attached to my Mom! Funny, eh?

Anyway -- I know she'll have fun in Portugal but she will be missed!
