Caitpott, if you haven't booked a driver I can't reccomend Rocky enough!

That's awesome Tfw, we knew on our first trip a week would never be enough. When I recently reminded my husband to make sure to alert his company of our trip he asked for the dates, when I told him July 1st thru the 15 th his eyes got big and he mumbled something about not realizing we were staying that long.....well dear you booked the flights! LOL I know he is nervous leaving our 4 year old for so long. Me? Not.at.all. This is a trip of a lifetime and much needed after a very hard year. We need to relax and reconnect, Negril is just what the doctor ordered. It's like going home, my body is in Texas my heart resides in Negril.

Sweetie, leaving one's child is always hard, but the second the door is closed, they are fine! I get where you're coming from, but I assure you - the little munchmopper will be just fine. It has taken me 24 years of motherhood to realize that my kids CAN survive without me! Yeah, he (or she) may not get the FDA recommended amount of veggies, and possibly a lot more than the FDA recommended amount of candy (if grandparents are involved), but it all balances out. Children are incredibly resilient and know how to adapt. Really! Fear not! As a parent just moving out of the teen years ..... this is a good thing to do! There will be times to come when you will need to, but simply cannot do that to the world!

Enjoy the time. Now!

My daughter always has loved staying at both grandparents' houses. One has a pool and the other takes her to the store and buys her whatever she wants, lol. Plus she is by nature a "go-er and do-er". Moss won't grow on her, lol.

It's almost time Tfw... Hope you are running one of those miles for me bc all I seem to do is sit on my backporch & increase my tollerence! (did i spell that right?)

[tfw73]

I did six tonight, Steph! I don't know if it actually helps, however! Good news...I bought my first necessity for the trip this past Saturday. Stocking up on the sunscreen...woohoo.

Just wanted to post that my countdown says ONE MONTH!!! (and lots of days lol)

For some reason I can't get my ticker to work.. I don't like the one month and days ones...makes it sound too long. I prefer a counter with days only. Silly I know.so I'm at 42 days!

I was at Target te other day and passed the "travel size stuff" aisle. So I figured I might as well start stocking up since I usually leave most of those things behind. So I got the mini listerine and Tide to go pen and little body washes, etc. I am so FREAKIN excited!
