Concerned Ally

The back story:  A couple weeks ago, Ben went to Baltimore for a conference.  He left on a Saturday and came back on Monday.  The following is an exchange between Ally and me.

Ally:  "Mom, is anyone going to come and help you while Daddy is away?  I'm a little worried that you're not going to be able to watch me and Amelia by yourself."
Me (out loud):  "Nope, it's just going to be the three of us."
Me (in my head):  "Um, should I be worried?"

In all fairness, the last time Ben went to a conference was last May when he was in Australia for a week.  For that, my parents did come and stay with us.  Life with kids...it keeps you on your toes!
