Michelle, I feel the same exact way about my babies. I have to get hip surgery next month and it is killing me to have to leave them for a few days. My fiance will be taking care of them but I feel that he won't spoil them as much as I do so it worries me, lol. I know that they will be fine and loved but I still suffer without them. My world is a much better place with them in it and I truly thank God for them every day. They are a blessing. Enjoy your retreat. Evelyn

(Gloria, you hit it on the money...i'm the one who will be miserable, i just NEED my belly kisses 10 x a day!) I had the lady over dinner and decided to go to the retreat. I really need it, I just discovered my dad passed a few months ago and his new wife decided we all should not be informed so that was my Christmas. As I am still in shock I was very wary of having my baby in jeopardy but he seemed to warm to her and she is being well paid and well instructed. He will not be just let out but will be walked on leash. (I know he'd be fine but I since he's never been with anyone else I prefer she ahs total control). She also must stay in myhouse with him sleeping over and yes she had to agree wit letting him sleep with her. It amaes me (it should not) but it seems as if he knows she will be watching him. He warmed to her but still seems sad. I told her if ANYTHING seems weird she needs to interrupt me ASAP. And she agreed to do so. I really need the time in prayer asnd meditation so I'm off tomorrow night until New Years. I would have given her this forum but if anything gets to th epont she needs to ask anything it will be me who she asks and I will abandon my endeavor. Who knew a tiny dog would run my life! But he does and its a better place to be because of it. best, michelle and henry in the beautiful Catskill Mountains, NY More new features than ever.
