We (my husband and I) left the kids with a sitter overnight.
A first.
Hubby and I have attended a black tie event in January in Detroit for the past 10 or so years with his co-workers and their spouses. And this year, we flew up north for the event, a reception that preceded it, and a fancy dinner after. We flew home the next morning. We were gone just over 24 hours.
The North American International Auto Show Charity Preview is a black tie event that raises money for a list of childrens' charities all in one evening.
We had a trusted sitter.
Was I nervous anyway? Anxious? Yes and yes.
And we all had a great time! Maybe the kids needed a break from Mom and Dad, too.

Yay! Good job Mom and kids!
It's been a long time in coming. Im sure it's good to know the house was not only NOT burned down when you got back, but I suspect things were pretty much the same as you left it, right?
WTG you guys!
Congratulations!!!! :-)
That is a big deal for parents of special needs kids!!!
Love your blog!
