Yesterday my youngest daughter returned home from a visit with her mother. It was a rough 9 days with out her in the house. Me and my other daughter did have a lot of fun doing things for “Older kids” but you could tell that we both missed her very much.
My oldest brother and his children are in town and the plan was I was going to hang out with her at my mothers until the kids went to bed and then go home so I could get up early in the morning and go to work. This seamed like a good plan because she would be asleep then wake up with her cousins. But, when she realized I was going to leave she grabbed a hold of me and would not let me go. I asked her what she wanted to do, she replied, “Go with you.”
I said, “That means you are going to have to get up at 5:00 am with me.”
Her responce, “I want to sleep with you.”
So of course we went back home plopped in bed and put a movie on. While we were watching the movie she sat up kissed my head and said, “Daddy, I missed you so much I cried.”
MY KIDS ARE GREAT!!!!
