I totally understand. Prayin...Oh my sweet friend. I totally understand. Praying for something closer. Here is my truth for the day. I have always been one of those Mom's who loves my children and have enjoyed every stage, but I am not one of those that cries at the thought of my babies growing up. I love them now, but I am also excited about the stuff we can do when they are more self sufficient. However, here is one thing I don't like about them growing up...We are a very close family who is very routine oriented and we like our quirky little family rituals. We eat dinner together 5 out of 7 nights, we set the alarms early so we can all cuddle every morning, and we watch Disney Channel shows together every night. Now that they are getting bigger and involved in more things, we are having to adjust...eating early to accommodate swim lessons, tball practice twice a week, a very tired boy who could use a little more sleep in the morning, I seem to be running around daily like a chicken with my head cut off between preschool, bus stops, doctors appointments, car repair, etc. I am missing our boring life.Peggynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6027511072264313662.post-76744211159704383132010-03-09T14:57:39.169-05:002010-03-09T14:57:39.169-05:00I totally understand.

I miss him but my daughter just doesn't understand why Daddy has to go away and he missed her dreadfully. When he is not traveling he often works very long hours and goes for days without seeing her as she is in bed when he leaves in the morning and again when he gets home at night. It's tough on everyone in those situations, so I hear you! I hope he finds something closer to home soon.One Photohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793386254564806126noreply@blogger.com
