It's still sad....

Don't get me wrong. While I am 100% certain we have made the right decision about helping the kids return home, it's still very sad. I found the decal stickers we bought in Disney World for the minivan when we thought the kids were likely to stay forever.

We didn't put them in the car in case it would upset their Mom. I had put them away and found them tonight. I asked Hubby if he wanted to try to return them in a few weeks when we go.

He suggested we give the kids their and they can do with them what they wish. Then he asked if I wanted to put ours and the dog on my van. That seemed pretty pathetic to me. A minivan with only a dog on it?

Then I was crying and he was crying and the dog kind of had his head hung low. I think he's going to be lost without the kids too.

And can I just say I have no idea how to start packing them up....
