Single Mom 2012

I was quite proud of myself that I survived the four days Phil was gone on his guy's trip (why is it that the guys can manage to get away but us girls can not???).  That was the longest I have been left alone with two kids by myself: 2 kids + 24 hours a day X 4 days = 1 tired Mommy.  I know that army spouses and wives of traveling salesmen are mocking me right now.  But the first time is the hardest!  Not only did I survive, I even went above and beyond and took the kids to the Children's Museum one morning in downtown Charleston.  Keeping an eye on two kids in small spaces that is filled with everyone else's crazy kids was quite challenging...luckily, Miss Kayla didn't want to be too far from her brother, so I guess my kids threw this novice a bone.
