I had a bright idea that Don and I should invite my (senior) parents on vacation with us to Puerto Plata AND we would bring H too!
Fun right?!!?!?!? I thought it would be, but as we got closer and closer to our departure date I started to panic and thinking āWHAT THE FUCK WAS I THINKING?!?!?ā And then I spiralled with every single scenario that could possibly go wrongā¦.
We decided not to tell H that my parents were coming, just in case something happened and they didnāt end up coming. When we left our house to go to the airport, we went to my parents house to get them –
H – Why are we at grannyās? We are going to the airplane.
Me – Because granny and papa are coming on vacation.
Her face was stunned, like she couldnāt comprehend what I just said.
H – very slowly – Granny and papa are coming on vacation?!?! I am so excited!
H was very clearly excited to see my parents get in the car!
Don gets my parentās luggage into the truck, and we start making our way to the airport. We are more than halfway there –
Yes I find farts funny.
Funnier, is the clapping her hands at me because I am not moving fast enough while she is in the bathroom. H was in a hurry to get back to playing in the pool with her Papa!
Mama is behind the palm tree while her two little kittens drink water out of the frisbee!
and that Grampa teaches her how to do things.
The trip was fun.
None of my worst case scenarios came true.
H and my parents had many laughs! Many memories were made for H to carry with her for a lifetime. ā¤ļø
Would I take my parents and H on vacation again? Without a doubt!
I will always want to be a part of H making memories, and knowing that one day when she shares all the adventures she had has a child, I was there ā¤ļø
