Happy Mother's Day!

Lindsey and I went to Bacara on Saturday for the day and night... It was an interesting time away... Bacara was housing (nearly booked solid by) the evacuees of the Santa Barbara fires. So just as we have a day and night AWAY from our kids, we are faced with a full house of young children and their dogs, all screaming, running, cannonballing and marco-polo-ing everywhere!!! After a night of Lindsey (poor thing) in the bathroom with food poisoning and a 6:30am wake up call from the kids on BOTH sides of our room, we didn't exactly get the sleep we had planned on.  In fact, I think Corey got more sleep! Not quite the experience we were looking for and fortunately the hotel understood that and adjusted our room rate quite a bit.  Phew. Regardless, it was a small glimpse of new freedom that was both amazing and bittersweet. I missed Deia so much! Sunday was lovely, it was so fun to come home to her smile and then we had my family over for tea and sandwiches. It was great to hear about how much fun Deia and Daddy had too! They went to an art exhibit and to griffith park. Corey has a deeper understanding of how much energy is required when covering that amount of time on your own! Of course, this all happens when she has decided to sleep through the night! Figures ;-)
