Crunch Time
Tomorrow Heidi, Merry, and Thomas leave for Atlanta. Yikes! The reality of a week alone with David is beginning to set in. Merry has been rubbing it in that she is going to Atlanta and David isn't. This teasing has made David hyper-sensitive, every time Heidi leaves the house he is sure that she is not coming back, this makes him cry.
David has been sick for about a week now, and although I feel terrible that he feels terrible, the ugly truth is, his illness slows him down, and slowing David down is not necessarily a bad thing. Actually, it is a good thing, he is more likely to sit still, he listens better and gets into far fewer mischievous endeavors when he does not feel well.
The more I think about it the less concerned I am. This may come back and bite me in the ass, but I really think we are going to do just fine. Friday, I am going to take him skiing, I don't know what we are going to do over the weekend, but I am sure we will have some sort of adventure. Then Monday it is back to work, getting him dressed and out the door will be a challenge, but I think I am up to it.
Before you know it Thursday will be here and David and I will be on a plane to hook up with the rest of the family. Peace of cake!
Right?
Wish Me Luck.

Good luck, not that I think you'll need it. You'll be fine; have fun skiing.
