You are not alone! My little one wanted to go on a school DC trip next year. She will be not-quite-12 then. Believe me, I felt a lot of your worry! Luckily for me, her friends can't go so she changed her mind. Hope your daughter has a blast on her trip! Bet you can't wait to give her an extra long hug. xoBella Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139728758198482234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7057552756982475561.post-16394832930482082622013-05-19T21:47:33.600-04:002013-05-19T21:47:33.600-04:00Before Spawn went away for a 7 day trip to Paris, ...Before Spawn went away for a 7 day trip to Paris, I couldn't wait to see the back of him. All his things were packed a week in advanced, money changed and sorted and all necessary checks put into place. As soon as the coach taking them to the Euro tunnel roared off, I blubbed like a baby and continued to do so for around 24 hours. When he came back, I was so happy to see him...for about 2 Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06418601369080683210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7057552756982475561.post-64024833143667310802013-05-19T21:03:58.198-04:002013-05-19T21:03:58.198-04:00So yes ... it seems a slight bit of paranoia may b...So yes ... it seems a slight bit of paranoia may be leaking through into the ether.
