I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane

Well, here is a recap of my FABULOUS trip to L.A. I apologize it is another little ditty but I've had this song in my head since leaving and it needs to get out. So without further adieu...

I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane.
Sung to the tune of...you guessed it, I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane.


All my bags are packed, not so ready to go
I'm standin' here outside the car door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But my kids I'm missin', I can't believe
The plane is waitin', it's ready to leave
Please don't grow up without me, I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll remember me
Oh these darn tears why do they have to flow

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

There's so many things we did for fun
Great pedicures to name just one
A great shopping trip to top the list

Hangin' with my sisters is always funny
Loved napping with you on my tummy
Please know that immensely you will be missed

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll remember me
Oh these darn tears why do they have to flow

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
I'm so blessed to have met you
I dream that we will live near by one day

I Dream about the days to come
I'm sorry March is so far from
Until we meet again I'll have to say...

kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll remember me
Oh these darn tears why do they have to flow

'Cause I'm leaving on a jet plane
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I hate to go


I'm leaving on a jet plane

I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh, babe, I LOVE YOU SO!

Oh, Lisa. How special is that. I'm so happy that you and your sisters had such a special time with each other, Aunt Patty and Baby Sarah. Those times are to be treasured!!! I'm so glad that you all love each other so much!
I love you all so much as well. Mom
P.S. I'm leaving on the jet plane to see her next Wednesday!

P.S. I forgot to add Richard. I know he's as much fun as anyone!!! And a fantastic sport!!!

Oh now who's the cry baby!!!! LOVED THIS...might have to have a copy for my blog so that it can go in Sarah's scrapbook/journal. We miss you dearly and we too wish we lived closer and could see each other more often. March will be here quickly, I am wishing it so!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE you and am so glad you love my little girl. I never knew how wonderful it is to know there are so many people who love your own kids. I love yours and it's so wonderful to have so many who love Sarah as their own. Isn't family the greatest? (Or atleast ours!!)

We love you!! XOXOXOXOXOX

What a nice sister to love a niece so much!

Annie said...

Glad to hear that you had a great time! It is so special that you and your sisters are so close. Sisters are the best. The baby is so sweet.

Amanda said...

Oh what awesome pictures! I love them all. She is so cute! I love the one of her sleeping on you. Nothing like a baby sleeping on you. I could spend the whole afternoon that way. It looks like you had a great time. I hope you get to see her again very soon! :)

I want a newborn muffin to play with without my own kids hanging on me. Where's mine?

Karalenn Hippen said...

oooo what a tiny ity bity little baby! So sweet! I'm glad you got to be with your sisters. That is wonderful. I get to take a trip to see my little sister this summer that I can hardly wait for!!!!

So I'm not a crier, but you got me with that one. There is nothing worse than a little niece or nephew who lives far from me. I can hardly stand it. I'm so glad you get to see her again in March!

Today I get to see my little nephew Griffin, Ellie's kid. He's three and it's only been about five months and I can hardly wait!

So I think you missed your calling in life; you should go into song writing. I want you to come visit me so you can write a song about me. =) Glad you had a good time. Can't wait to hear how your family fared.

Oh! I'm so baby hungry and seeing these pictures are not good!
I LOVE the poka-dot outfit!!!
Anyways, it looks like you enjoyed your "liitle" vacation with your sisters... how neat!
it's good to have you back!

Hi Honey! What a fun time you had! Just think how lucky you are that you were able to do that!!! Do you think seeing you three girls together like that - all grown up and two with babies, - doesn't make us so darned proud??!!
We are the lucky ones for sure!!! We are glad you had such a great time and thank you for all the pictures you posted of your trip!!
We do love those pictures!! Loved your little song too! Too bad little Nathan (little??) wasn't there yet so you could have seen him too! He looks like a sweetie too! Boy, I (Grandma) am really aching inside now! I would love to see both of them so bad!!! Maybe so for Sarah in March!!!
We love you!
