New Adventure

Hello everyone! I'm writing this morning after dropping Oliver at school where he was going to be heading off on a 4 day, 3 night field trip(he'll be back Sunday night). This means that for the first time, I'm alone with Evan and Ryan for more than a day. I'm a little worried, but then Mom has had to do this often enough that its not scary. I'm just worried that by the time Sunday night comes around, I'll have gone slowly out of my mind. For example, Evan has already started it by not sleeping last night. AT ALL! And he's still going, even through the car ride to UVU, run into Walmart, and car ride back home(although he did fall asleep on the way home for about 15 minutes). There are a couple things that make this adventure more positive: Oliver loves the outdoors, as you all know, and he gets to be focused on nature for the next four days! I'm so happy for him and glad that he's getting joy out of school again. I'm sure he'll have lots to share when he gets home. The other nice thing is that we got a delivery in the mail yesterday. And it has given me lots of joy. It will allow me to actually leave the house with the two boys without too much difficulty and with so much ease whenever Oliver isn't around, like the next 4 days. I am excited for General Conference this weekend, even though I will have many distractions, but we'll see if I can focus a little bit in order to share my favorite points with Oliver when he gets back.
