Christine in Italy Day #1

Today's theme was, where's mommy? It's funny how kids just know when leaving the house is different... Mackinna seems to understand what is going on, she still misses mommy but knows that she is on a plane with Grandma on her way to Italy. She has no earthly idea where Italy is but knows mommy and grandma are on their way. Kaden on the other hand has been asking for his mommy all day as if he knows she is not coming home for a while. Everytime he saw an airplane today he would look at me and ask "Mommy?" I would tell him not that one, always reassuring him he was right, mommy was indeed on an airplane to which his reply was "me, mommy's bap (lap)". Christine's lap is where Kaden has flown his entire life, so I guess in his mind he assumes if he were able to be with mommy on the plane her lap is where he should be.
Other than the planes in the sky today and Kaden wanting to be with his mommy everytime he saw one things went really well. We went to look at a sailboat, which Kaden assumes will be his since Mackinna already has her boat that Grandpa drives. I took the kids out to dinner at a new McDonalds with a stellar play ground. We topped the night off with some desert and 5 innings of scoreless baseball at the seadogs game. So day one wasn't so bad, I'll see how the night goes I think 5 a.m. is where Kaden will really miss mommy, we'll see. Updates tomorrow.
