Last weekend was Mom's longest time away from you. I went to the mountains with my friends Amanda and Spruill for a girl's weekend and you got a whole 3 days with just your Daddy. You guys got to go to the park together, went to Grandma and Papa's for dinner, played in the yard with Penny and Bella, and watched football.
While I was gone, Daddy sent me a picture of you eating breakfast giving a "I love Mommy nose scrunch". It made me want to drive right home and give you a hug. When I finally got home, you gave me a million hugs over two days. We went to the grocery store and you kept leaning over in the cart to give me hugs. I loved it. It was the first time I realized that you have the capacity to miss us when we are gone. Not that I don't think you love us, but you are at an age when you notice the passing of time.
Now that I am home, I get a least three nose scrunches a day and about 5 hugs. The best hugs are right before I put you in your car seat. For some reason, you give the longest hugs sitting in the back seat, waiting to be put down. I love every second of them.
