Thank you, Sonja.
It's 11:30PM here and I'm back.
I had a good time when none was expected!
My daughter was really sweet, hugging and kissing me, whispering sweet words into my ear - in front of all her classmates, wow.
When the kids were in the bus, three of us moms stood together and made lots of fun about the teachers and the principal (who is also on this trip). One of the female teachers is a real hottie and we said she's the reason the principal accompanies the trip. Then we pictured the poor man having a hard time not only separating the girls from the boys, but also keeping the male teachers off the hottie.
So I didn't have any time to get sentimental, but had lots of laughs instead.
