Flying Solo, My kids

This weekend was so refreshing! It was nice to be with family, but it was also really nice to have some 'me' time and be independent. It felt really strange and selfish to me at the beginning to leave my kids and my husband, but it was nice to be able to re-evaluate myself and think of ways to improve. It was also just nice to realize that I'm more than a mom and can improve my life in other ways too. I met some great people and had some great conversations on the airplane and I rarely ever have the chance to do that. It was so great. But I also realize that life is not as rewarding or fulfilling without my two sweet children and wonderful husband. They, more than anything else, make me who I am and help me improve myself for the better and I'm grateful for that.
