I admit, I have been an over-protective parent. It is a fact, I am aware.

It is also a fact that I have not spent a day/night away from Liv for all of her 20+ months of life, and have only spent 2 nights away from Avery (while in the hospital giving birth) for all of her 6 years of life.

BUT, my hubby and I are going to go on an overnight date...can you believe it? We are staying in a super nice hotel, doing some shopping, eating out, and spending time with each other. It's been 6 years since we've been alone. Gol, when I write that out it sounds like a really long time.

Whatever the case, we're doing it. My kiddos will be safe in the arms of Nana and Bapa! Hopefully I'll be okay without them.....
