Today is going to be a wonderful day! I am leaving the office early, grabbing my princess, jumping in the car and whisking her away! We are running away together and I cannot wait! Why am I so excited about this? Read on...
- The next two days will be the first time that Margo and I have spent time alone together since Emerson was born WITHOUT having to worry about pausing to take time to care for Emmy, having to get up early to start her morning schedule, or having to make sure we're home by a certain time!
- Margo is my best friend on this earth. I miss her terribly, and I can't wait to reconnect with her and spoil her rotten!
- We are going to sleep in!
- I am turning off my cell phone for two days... entirely! If this doesn't seem much to you, then you need to understand something. I am a youth pastor. That means my primary audience is made up of students. Students don't talk. They text. Last month I received 4156 text messages. That's 134.06 text messages each day (yes, I did the math)! I can't wait to turn that thing off!
- I am not taking my computer. No email. No Facebook. No Myspace. No Twitter. No MyChurch. No AIM. No Skype. No iChat. Nothing. I guess what I am saying is, if you want to get a hold of me, you can't!
Can you tell I'm excited?! Here's the funny thing though. MARGO AND I HAVE GONE NEARLY 18 MONTHS WITHOUT TAKING TIME TO REALLY INVEST IN EACH OTHER AND JUST BE IN LOVE! For you guys who are reading this, you should beat me senseless. Seriously. For the guys who are reading this and you have done the same thing I have, you should be beat senseless too. For the guys that STILL don't know what I am talking about, PURSUE YOUR WIFE!

Man, send my hubbie a copy of this, cuz you know he never gets on blogs! I need some pursuin'!
