Time to Reflect...........

For the past two days, I have been living the single parent life. Curtis left Wednesday afternoon for a conference in San Francisco and will return late Saturday night. Spending this time alone with two kids, all day, and no relief has made me realize how truly blessed I am to have a husband who is apart of our lives daily and is rarely gone. I am not one who generally does well when he leaves, which has happened more often than me leaving him. I admire the strength that so many women have whose husbands are deployed overseas for long periods of time and the way in which they make life go on. I'm grateful for the job that Curtis has and that it allows him to be home with his family and rarely away on business. We miss family and friends and hope to someday soon move closer. Then, maybe the kids and I can leave Curtis for a change just so he knows what its like to be the one left at home, or better yet, I'll go by myself! Just wanted to share my thoughts with you all.
