And the weather today really blows. It is rainy and cool and just ick. Hmmm... reminds me of home. Traveling with kids is such a joy...errr pita. (P-ain I-n T-he A-ss) However, my children did very well despite getting up at 2:30 in the morning and driving to Salt Lake and then flying to Houston and then driving to Kingsville. It was a very long day. Some day I long to be like that woman traveling with nothing but a nice purse. Traveling with kids is not glamorous. It is sweaty and back breaking and a bit filled with crumbs. We are very glad to be down in Texas now despite the shit weather. The kids are having a blast despite the exhaustion, the grandparents are eating them up, and I have changed hardly any diapers. What more could I ask for?
