Mom's Solo Trip: Encouraging Family Independence

Fly home solo to Texas. Leave the kids with Dad. Spend the days with your parents without the distractions of your children. . . Go by yourself. Fly. Show the kids that Mom is independent. That you trust their daddy to take be enough for four days. . . Here’s to encouraging all members of the family to take time for themselves and not depend on others. A good time was had by all. Not sure they missed me actually... Which is okay! Granted, I did get a text asking me if they could have a popsicle. She just needed a gentle reminder that Daddy was in charge. Not mom from half a continent away. . . Don’t be a hovering parent. Be a freedom encouraging parent. The best kind of education, right? ;)
