Coaching Trip

Posted by Arden Wallace

Every year my husband goes out of town for five days in January for a soccer coach’s convention. The first few years he went I actually enjoyed my time alone while he was gone. I rented girl movies and got takeout and just relaxed. Now that we have two kids, any time that my husband goes away, it is a lot more stressful than it used to be. I knew that I was going to be exhausted by the time he got back at the end of the trip this year. Our daughter just started crawling and our son is in the middle of his terrible twos. I told my husband that before he left I would feel much safer if we got a home security system since I would be home alone with the kids while he was gone. He thought it was a good idea and searched online for “security system pennslyvania” and found one that he thought would be a good fit for our situation. I was really ready for him to be home from his trip. Not only was I exhausted from taking care of our kids alone, but I also missed him a lot.
