A Trip Around Texas

It was the last week my doctor would let me travel. So, why not travel alone with three children?! This, I suppose, was the thought floating innocently enough in my head. So, feeling totally capable, I loaded up the kiddos and visited some dear, dear friends I hadn’t seen in years. The boys were, to be honest, pretty terribly behaved—which made the trip a bajillion times more exhausting than I was anticipating. But it was “good for the soul,” as they say, to sit down with old friends and catch up—stay up late, reminisce about college, watch our little ones play together. Sweet. And worth it.
