The hard part will be saying goodbye. I managed that one because our son had been sick all week, was too little to understand what was going on, and didn't care a whit about us. No bonding at all for us on that first trip. Since Ivelina's older, that probably won't be the case withRainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11998700374826784939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4011243702397195476.post-76435056473650038792013-12-16T04:52:53.270-08:002013-12-16T04:52:53.270-08:00Oh Shelly...I hadn't checked the blog in a whi...Oh Shelly...I hadn't checked the blog in a while and didn't know you guys had travel dates!

Then she would see you smiling and giggling you're cute laugh. I guess I would try to load up on funny things to think about (some good Elf movie quotes or something).
