Am I totally selfish for wanting to go and not have to worry about anyone but me for two days?? Am I being selfish?? Being home with 4 kids 24/7 is stressful and I just feel like I need a break.

Good grief! There is absolutely nothing wrong with a little getaway for 2 days. Does your husband ever leave for a couple of days? My wife was full of mommy guilt back in 2005, when her dad and mom asked if she wanted to go to Europe with them for 9 days. My wife had never been to Europe. This was an opportunity of a lifetime for her. I can take care of the kids and have done it many times. She worried constantly about what people would think about her going, but I told her she was being too hard on herself.
She went on the trip and had a great time
