See you Sunday
Three new sheets await Addie, Ben and Theo for tomorrow morning on the breakfast table โ Rosie can't read yet, so she doesn't get one.
Addie's says: Addie. You are a caring, smart person with powerful joy. I love you and think you're amazing!! See you Sunday.
Ben's says: Ben. You are a thoughtful creative person with big feelings. I love you and think you're amazing!! See you Sunday.
Theo's says: Theo. You are an expressive, dynamic person with a magnetic personality. I love you and think you're amazing!! See you Sunday.
Tomorrow morning, 4:45 am, I'll be up and boarding a plane to Calgary, and then to Atlanta. I'm gone until Saturday. That's the longest trip I've taken all year long. Five entire days, I'll be without my family, and my family without me.
The parts I feel worst about being absent for are the parts for which there are no substitutes or helpers: early mornings, and the middle of the nights, when nobody else but parents will do. It's a lot for a solo parent to handle.
