And it will be great fun to see how he's changed when he comes hoome. I. gained so much confidence from that first trip away (also 5 nights), it was a big step for all of us but she benefited from that confidence for the whole next year. <br />But yes, it is very quiet and although it is fun to have lots of time for the child that stays at home, you always have that empty feeling in your stomach.Cybèlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15470546757550328725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24776294.post-85128500659887772272010-06-29T11:09:57.222+00:002010-06-29T11:09:57.222+00:00I completely understand your worries.

But although this trip will be very exiting and adventurous for Dylan, I am sure that he will also be glad to be home again, his own bed, his own room, with his family around him and it´s safety, and a kiss and a hug from mummy to welcoming him back. And when he finally told you everything about his trip I am also sure that you will be very proud of having helped him to become such a lovely and self-reliant boy.<br />Your day in the garden sounds wonderful, I so much would love to come for an hour, too, enjoy sitting on the grass, have a little shade and above all a good sip of those pretty special drinks, they look marvellous!Krawugglhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01552314811678481044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24776294.post-79480508011523847192010-06-28T22:22:09.412+00:002010-06-28T22:22:09.412+00:00The flouncy drinks will lure him back I'm sure...The flouncy drinks will lure him back I'm sure!<br />It's strange when there's one offspring fewer in the house isn't it? Mark stayed at a friend's on Saturday night and when we picked him up, he said 'The best thing about being away is everyone being so happy to see me when I come back'. <br />Five days is a long while though. But I'm sure he's having a ball.Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11723377593068712400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24776294.post-35826583890183464842010-06-28T21:14:41.735+00:002010-06-28T21:14:41.735+00:00Oh...they need to learn to go away so that they ca...Oh...they need to learn to go away so that they can learn to come home...trust me.alice chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16969805206040091585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24776294.post-11178510002647013382010-06-28T19:12:11.713+00:002010-06-28T19:12:11.713+00:00you can say that again!
