So I was going through my computer deleting files in an attempt to make some space and since I have TONS of pictures stored I thought I'd start with those. The very first folder of pics was from a "vacation" that I took the kids on in July 2010. For Terence & Jordan that was their first time on an airplane. They were excited!
So...the four of us boarded our plane for the one hour flight to SAN FRANCISCO, where we "vacationed" for 2 (maybe 3) days. My kids had a blast! Actually...we all did.
Looking back on the pics today made me just a wee bit melancholy as I realized that after all these years (my kids are 25, 21 & 17)...that was the ONLY vacation they've ever been on.
Many children their ages have multiple stamps in their passports from all of the luxurious and exotic places that they have traveled to with their families. Mine haven't had that luxury...yet.
So as I reminisced on the great time that we had on our "mini-vacation", the fire under my butt has once again increased in heat as I realize that I really need to to better so that I can give my children better. They've missed out on so much.
Let the DIALOUGUE begin: When was the last time YOU went on vacation, and where did you go?
Talk to me!
Til next time...
