Joy of LOVE: Day 11 Dreams

Lamar and I dream of traveling.  We had intended on traveling before we had children, but that did not happen.  The Universe had a different plan for us.  Just when we were feeling like we could leave Shianne with someone, Nora Beth was on her way.  Again, same story with Calum.  We were fortunate to be able to take a trip to Greece for our 10 year anniversary and we have had two trips to Hawaii in the past two years.  We do have a family trip to Florida coming this summer.

We have dreams of more travel.  So many places we want to go.  It is just so hard with the three kids.  We would love to take them with us, but we also want some time for us.  A trip with the kids looks very different from a trip without the kids.  If we take the kids it costs three times as much and if we don't take them we have a hard time finding someone who can watch them.  We have no family in the area to help out and it asks a lot of people to take on three more kids for a weekend...or week.

We have accepted that this is where we are in life right now.  We have plans of great trips in the future
