- Protection: For us and the Sischo's, the boys, & my parents. Protection from illness, injury, accidents and evil. For safety on our trip and for the boys and my parents during the week. That my parents wouldn't so much as have to deal with a drippy nose.
- Boys: Sleep (everything will go better if they sleep well), obedience, and comfort while we're gone.
- Parents: Sleep, extra energy, extra patience and ability to discipline the boys when necessary and not spoil them death. :)
- Us: That we and the Sischo's would have like-mindedness with each other as couple's and as spouses. Even though we all lived together for 3 months and remained friends, we want us all to 'get along' during this trip. Also, that there would be no major problems/hiccups on the trip with flights, hotels, rental car, etc...
- Me: Peace of Mind. A trip like this makes me think of all the necessary things that I never want to think about - like life insurance, what happens to our kids if something happens to us, medical release forms, etc... That I will leave it all in God's hands along with my very capable parents and not worry about things. That I will be able to relax and enjoy this wonderful opportunity that we've been given to get away.
Thank you and I look forward to telling you all about our fabulous trip.

Kelli you are going through something very normal. As a mother, I can relate to how you are feeling now. My separation came during a crisis when John was born and your mom did a fantastic job then. If you are near Lemoore maybe you can hook up with him for a meal. Trust God, trust your parents, and remember this will just be another learning experience for your sons. I love you and will be praying for you.
Kel,
We'll be praying for you! You'll have such a fun time. And it will be nice to spend a whole week with just your hubby (even if he is my brother!;) I would be very nervous if I was you too... and miss my children so much. :)

I'll be praying for you!! You'll have an amazing time... enjoy it. It doesn't come along very often!!!!! Can't wait to hear all about it! Hugs!
Oh...we are so jealous! HAVE A GREAT TIME! We will be praying! I know it will be difficult to leave the kiddos, but remember you and Marc need this! What an example you are setting for them and maybe someday when the boys have wives they'll remember how important it is to take care of their wife and marriage! FUN MEMORIES to be made!
