Recently Jeffrey went out of state for about 10 days. It was torture. And the kids didn't like it much either. Numerous times a day I was asked how many more days until he would get home. The kids looked forward to his phone calls everyday (but not as much as I did).
The most precious part was Bear on the night we were expecting him back. I found him lying of his belly staring out his bedroom window. He turned to me and said "I keep watching all of these planes go by and Daddy's not in any of them"
"How do you know Daddy isn't in any of them?"
"Because none of them have come here and gotten him out. I think they must have landed somewhere far away and he is trying to find his way to us."
Daddy finally found his way to "us".
