hi all,
We are deciding if we will take our girls with us to China. One will be close to 6 and the other will be close to 3. they were both born in Feb. (Ground Hog day and Valentine's day) and we plan on traveling this coming Oct. or Nov. They really wouldn't do well apart so it is a take both or leave both decision.

Our eldest enjoys reading and is pretty tame and can be helpful with her sister. Her sister is more active but likes to be held. Right now she doesn't like for us to walk out of the room much less leave for any reason.

We know that the two weeks in China with "Donna" are important for our bonding but we have a hard time with the idea of leaving our girls.

So would you leave your 3 and 6 year old girls?

If you have made the trip with kids or with others who took their kids let us know how it went.

We have some time to make this decision but would value imput and experience.

thank you in advance for your time and wisdom
