I penciled the dates into my planner with great anticipation: “Abby to Oklahoma” and “Abby to New York.”
Two full weeks, one in June and one in July.
Time with the grandparents for her, and scheduled breaks for me.
An oasis for this introverted mom amidst the constant togetherness of summer.
The Holy Grail of my recent life.
Alone time.
