A Good Reason to Take a Day Off....

I purposely took the day off for my sweet husband who is leaving the country in two days!!! He will be gone 10 days, so taking a day off from working out wasn't a big sacrifice so that we could spend the whole day together as a family!... I have nothing further....:)

Oh! That's such a long time...

Todd didn't get home until after the girls' bedtime last night, and I was musing that it's strange how I was able to make it through eight days alone with the kiddies when he went up to the Boundary waters, but somehow I struggle when he's only going to be gone for a day! Go figure...it must have totally been God filling in the gap during that time so that I didn't go crazy with loneliness!

I'll be thinking of you! I'm glad you got to have a day together as a family before he left!

Ten days?? I'll be praying for you and the kids, that it goes by quickly, and that he returns safely. It's so nice that you all could spend the day together before he goes.

I don't know how you ladies do it! 10 Days, 8 days - it's all a very long time to me!!
In June Kris went on a business trip for three days. It was hard on me because this was the first time in the five years of our marriage that we had been apart. I stayed really busy with the kids, and met Meghan at the playgroud almost everyday.
You guys will be in my prayers! I know I don't have to tell you but you're an amazing Mom and wife!
