Leaving little Bee...

So, I had to go to a conference in Detroit from Sunday to Tuesday. I didn't think it was going to be so difficult but it was very very very hard to leave Bee. DH took me to the airport and I was okay the whole ride until I had to leave. Bee was sleeping in the car and I started crying. Uncontrollably crying and I couldn't stop crying. The police were waving us on but I couldn't get out of the car. I kept kissing her little hand and wondered how DH was going to take care of her! I knew in my mind it was going to be fine but my heart was breaking. After blowing my nose a few times (10) I got out of the car and on the plane.

Bee was fine in my absence but definitely subdued. She played with her toys but did not do her happy scream or smile and deep giggling. She saved that for me!

Detroit is more attractive then I thought it was going to be. The Marriott Renaissance is on the River so you can see a gorgeous view of the Detroit River which runs into Lake Huron (I think).

The program at the conference was pretty strong full of very strong speakers. Penelope Trunk definitely stood out with her message of "spin," job hopping and finding yourself. Which is all fine and good if you have a ton of money in the bank or guaranteed health care for your family. But I digress.
