Actually from August 8, 2007 - I’m away for four days to a conference. This is my first trip away from Sam. I’m a little sad. It’s amazing how attached we become and how quickly. He and I have been attached (in many cases, literally) for six months externally and nine months before that. On one hand, I’m looking forward to being able to relax and catch up on some reading in the evenings. I was able to drive 5 hours almost straight through without having to nurse or just give him time to stretch. I will be able to eat a restaurant without rushing to beat Sam’s “witching hour”. On the other hand, I wonder what new and exciting thing I’m missing. Did he enjoy eating a new veggie? Did he finally figure out how to play in the bathtub? Did he need me to sing him to sleep? Ultimately, he’s never out of my mind for long. I call and talk to him every night. Andy fills me in on his escapades. And - especially since I’m nursing - I know I’m still taking care of his needs even while away.

Away from Home
