Vacation vs. Rest & Relaxation
Last week I went on a whirlwind vacation to Florida with my three youngest children, my sister and her three children, and my mom and dad. My sister and I have children that are all born within a few months of each other, so it was like having 3 sets of twins with us wherever we went. It was lots of fun for the cousins to play and experience Disney World and the Kennedy Space Center together, but it was by no means restful or relaxing. We packed two strollers, two diaper bags, a backpack, six car seats, and a Snuggli everywhere we went! The most exhausting part of the whole trip was trying to get the whole entourage through airport security (twice). It is so ironic that when we have time to take a break from the daily grind, we pack it so full of activity that we are worn out from our vacation and in desperate need of some rest and relaxation!
