We dropped the boys off for their first-ever sleep away camp tonight. They handled it better than me, but I did manage to put on a brave face. They’re my people, you know? What am I going to do until Saturday morning without them filling most of my waking moments (ok, I imagine they’ll still fill most of those moments—just in a different way).
Don’t get me wrong, Chris and I have been excited for the vacation from parenting, but that part hasn’t exactly kicked in quite yet. I just hope everything goes ok for the boys tonight. The first night is always the hardest, after all.
