Short trip

I just got back from a mini vacation with my mom and my kids! It was fun. The kids enjoyed everything, but they enjoyed the pool at the hotel the most!! They also got to ride a horse drawn wagon, and since it was a slow day they got to feed Pete (the horse) for a good twenty minutes! We did bring in some stares, I saw not one other person of color our entire time there, much less a transracial family! We love the spotlight. Mamaw of course spoiled the kids wild, they ate ice cream, popcorn and snow cones galore. I had a nice time with my mom too we even finished off the evening with some wine. The only dark side of this vacation was that we had to cut it early to get back in town for what was supposed to be a super important therapy group for my middle son (with significant special needs.) If it had been an encouraging group I would not be negative, but seeing how utterly ordinary it was, I think it was more detrimental to my sons mental health to miss out on Mamaw time than to miss this.
