changing tides

Happy that I am embarking on a trip to Vegas next week for a solid 7 days.
Sad that I'd be leaving my beloved Lil'Ethan for that entire week, first ever, since his birth.
It'd be a tight schedule, but I do hope he'd be able to cope without me, esp in the night....
Well, sometimes we just have to learn to let go, and venture out of the comfy box, perhaps treasures await us, and the gold inside would shine brighter with more independence.
