I was dressed in www.polyvore.com “Maybe we shouldn’t go” I said, looking at Jaelyn “Babe, Jae will be fine with mom. I mean, she raised me didn’t she” my eyes tore from my baby girl to Justin; who was now putting the cases down by the door and coming to wrap his arms around my waist from behind “I know it’s the first time you’re leaving her, but we need this break” he said in a low voice before kissing my cheek “Exactly, now move your butts or-” I cut Pattie off “I know, I know, we’ll miss our flight” she laughed and I walked over to her hugging her, then looking down to Jaelyn “Bye Bye baby” I said as I kissed her pudgy cheek.

I heard Jaelyn make a noise like ‘Gah’ and then Pattie said “Yes, mommy and daddy are going away for a while” as we continued to walk to Ryan’s car, she started crying.
