My boy Jack is home for spring break this week.  He has a bit of a cold but still wanted to go eat at a local crab restaurant.  He is 7 and eats their cheese sticks.  No crabs for my boy!  He loves it there and Hubby and I eat crab galore.  Today I feasted on shrimp and felt happy all over.  Felt good to take the boy out.  I feel guilty we can't take him to Florida or Hawaii for a spring break getaway. Truth is, this year has been tough financially.  I don't think Jack cares where we go as long as we are with him.  I hug him and tell him I love him constantly.  All 3 of us lay in bed with the animals and laugh and just feel happy.  Maybe that's better than any vacation I can conjure up.  Maybe that's all he needs.
