Harper had her opportunity to go on her one-on-one trip with me this last week. We had a wonderful time.
We caught the very early flight to get to Orange County. Uber'ed to the hotel. Checked in and Uber'ed to the park. We spent our first afternoon in Disneyland.

I was going to take a couple of days off, I was going to get a hotel room - a hotel with a pool - and I was just going to hide out and ride it out. I had it all figured out. Well, I decided that my kids might be a bit upset with me that I did this.
