Misses Me

4:50am

Declan runs in the room and hops into bed with me.

"Where's Daddy?"

"He's at work Declan. It's still nighttime."

"Can I watch Lego videos?"

"No you can go to sleep."

Then we both woke up at 7am. 

I actually got to sleep until 7am!! Declan and I were both well rested. 

We had a song and dance kind of morning.

Not even kidding. We were both in great moods. We sang the a song from the Muppet movie together and then we put the movie on and sang it again. Declan did the dancing.

A little later while he was playing with his cars he struggled to get them out of his toy transport truck. He picked it up so he could dump them out and the expandable car levels collapsed. His little thumbs were being pinched, I could see it on his face. He didn't cry or say anything. He set it back down and lifted the levels back up. Then reached in and got his cars. He's tough...and smart. It's cool watching him figure things out on his own.

We had a great morning before I had to head off to work. While at work I get a text from Daddy:

After Declan's nap, just hanging out Declan asked "Where's Mommy?"

"She's at work Declan."

"Oh." Pause. "I miss Mommy."

Awwww buddy I miss you too, all the time.
