It is always something... but make lemonade

We have begun our travels this month as a family.  We had to remember that the reason we moved to Paris was not only because it is a great place to live but the travel opportunities abound.  So, I write this blog from an awesome four star hotel in Edinburgh, Scotland.  Why would anyone be writing a blog at 7:30 p.m. in a hotel room in Scotland where pubs and great restaurants are everywhere.  Well, the little monkey, as they all tend to do, got sick just in time for our planned leisure trip (although Troy is working some of the time).  

So, I did the wifely thing and sent Troy out with his work mates for drinks and food.  I don't mind. My job is a momma right now and I take it seriously.  I am just grateful to be out of the crazy Parisian city for awhile.  

Little monkey and parents in tow spent a couple of hours with the socialized medicine folks at the all around, treat anything, treat anyone doctor and got the right medicine to help Allie begin to see a future in enjoying Scotland, or at least the awesome indoor pool at the hotel!

By the way, Edinburgh is great.  I am hopeful that Allie will be ready to explore in a day or two and Troy can have great success with his conference.  

Then we can relax and celebrate 10 years of a great married life together with a healthy little girl by our side.
