Keeping a secret from my kids is HARD! It is doubly hard when you want so badly to let them in on the secret. My niece is graduating from high school in a couple weeks, yay her! My kids all know that I am going out to the graduation. What they do not know is that the whole family is going to California for the graduation and Disneyland!!! Seriously is killing me not to tell them. Especially when Picasso is begging me to take him with me as he will miss me too much. When they are getting excited about end of the year school stuff, which they are going to miss. When I'm trying to arrange finals for Archer without him knowing why he has to take some of his tests early. One more week and then I can tell them! Only one more week of biting my tongue. One more week of trying to not lie to them about stuff, but not being able to quite tell them the truth either. They will be finding out through a gift with Disney shirts, Mickey and Minnie cake pops, and the tickets to Disneyland. I am expecting a fairly epic freak out! That should be pretty freaking fantastic. It should be worth it all.
Until then I will keep organizing our trip. Getting house sitting/cat watching set up. Arranging things with teachers so the kids will be good to miss the last week or so of school. I am trying not to stress about my foot and the pain that it is still in. Hopefully it will hold up well enough. If not, what do you do. I may make an appointment to go in to see the doc next week, but really there is nothing he can do at this point. A little pain is worth the memories we will make on our first ever big family vacation. I cannot wait!
