Today, even though Nick's only been gone 4 hours (not even overnight yet!), I'm missing my man! Nothing's ever as simple when you're by yourself. Little things like taking the trash can to the end of the driveway, making sure all doors are locked at night, getting the kids ready for bed, just being in charge of everything, seems bigger than usual. Because we're a Team. We share the load. Even if I end up doing these things when Nick is home, I know he's looking out for me. I know he's doing something else that needs to get done. He's there. He's my solid, hunky, helpful, loving husband. I am thankful for him. And, right now I miss him.
These random trips are only a couple of times a year and I know I'm lucky. So many wives have husbands who travel weekly or who live overseas for months or years at a time. I know I wouldn't handle that well. I am thankful for such a wonderful husband and father to our 3 precious children. I hope Nick's able to enjoy his trip...away from the humdrum of everyday...in a new and exciting environment...and out of the office.
Till then, we'll just keep trucking along and look forward to Saturday, when we get to have Nick home again.
Be safe babe. We love you!
