Default Leaving my Daughter while I take Vacation...

I’m writing this to just maybe get some feedback. <O
I am going on vacation with my Mom to Vegas next week and leaving my daughter with my hubby for the long weekend. I will be gone really only 3 days, 4 nights. I’m worried. I know it’s stupid but I feel like my daughter will be sad without me. I know she’ll be fine and she loves her daddy but I feel because I do most of the daily parenting duties that A) my hubby will be overwhelmed and B) my daughter will miss the times we share. I also have this sinking feeling she won’t remember me when I get back. I know it’s not the case but I can’t fight the feeling. <O</O
I am going to be 30 this weekend. My Mom has taken me to Vegas every year since I turned 21. I went when I was pregnant and again when my Mom got married both time with my daughter. But other then that it’s been nearly 3 years since my Mom and I had this girls trip. I need the vacation and time to myself and I know this but still can’t fight the urge to cry when I think about leaving my daughter. We have left her for a weekend with my Mom while hubby and I got away and this time should be better knowing she’s with her daddy. Just can’t shake it. <O</O
My hubby is a little worried too. So that concerns me. He knows he can do it. But it’s a big step I think. He’s just thinking he won’t be able to entertain her enough. <O</O

Any advice. Anyone done it that can tell me it will all be ok??? I feel like a bad Mommy leaving her for a long weekend in Vegas. Any advice is greatly appreciated! <O</O
