Leaving tomorrow!

Can't believe how fast it has gone since I first contemplated going to Malaysia... Time flys when you are having fun, so the saying goes!!

I'm nervous for a number of reasons, not just the fact that I have never left Australia's shores; more so because its the first time that I will have been away from my kids for more than a day and because it brings back memories of the days my husband would go away for months on end with the Navy. There is that ugly, awkward feeling inside of me that I used to get whenever he would leave, but this time the shoe is on the other foot.

I have kissed the kids a million times and put them both to bed for the last time in 3 weeks... the thought of it alone is bringing tears to my eyes. But I know in the long run I am doing all of this to benefit them... I just hope the both of them and their Daddy know how much I love them and how hard it is going to be for me to say goodbye tomorrow.

Time to go, tears are starting to well... will write again soon. Hopefully once I get to Singapore.
