Missing Daddy
Daddy left for a business trip to London and Paris on Saturday and lately its been pretty obvious that Logan is missing him. Each night we've worked into grace and his bedtime prayer something to the effect of "God, Please keep Daddy safe while he's away and let him know we miss him." Last night we read his Teddy Bear book - the bear in it and a little boy prepare to go to bed. When we got to the line "Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear say your prayers," Logan folded his hands together, bowed his head and said "Gah, Daddy safe he away. Miss him. Amean."This morning as I got him from his crib he said to me "Mommy, Daddy home now?" And I had to say sadly, "No honey, not yet." Poor kid sighed deeply and said "Away at meetin' for work. Up up away on plane."
He later got to talk to Daddy on the phone and the smile on his face was so sweet. He tried to kiss the phone and put his one finger up to the ear piece - "Daddy in here," he said.
