Anna is back to herself, thank goodness! I am getting nervous for my trip to Paris without her. I'm not worried about my mom taking care of her or anything like that, but this will be the first time she's been left overnight for several days without me or Craig there to take care of her. I'm sure it will work out just fine but I can't not worry, I guess that's part of being a mother.

I was having a hard time getting myself to leave. Stopped at the grocery store to get some Luna bars, continued on to the airport. It felt simultaneously strange and OK as I processed what I was doing. Why did this sound like such a good idea two weeks ago when I booked my tickets?
My flight was an hour late so I took a momemt to appreciate that Anna wasn't with me so that I didn't need to be stressed out about it. The flight was pretty empty and there was an open middle seat next to me which was really nice. Several hours into the flight a woman fainted which caused quite a stir. She seemed to be fine and I never did hear the details. The rest of the flight was uneventful as was going through security at the airport. Of course I am constantly wondering how it is going at home!
