We love our dad!

We miss him terribly too. He has now been gone for two and a half weeks and we only have a week and a half left. I (well we) can't wait until September 19th when he will return to us. Sunday was probably my I just am losing it and going to break day, appropriately I assume since it was the halfway mark. However, when your two year old almost three decides for two days in a row to wake up one night 6 times and then the next night wake up three times and both days refuses to take a nap, you would probably go insane too. Also in retaliation while she had to lay in her bed even if she wasn't sleeping, she decided to poop her diaper and stick her hands in the side and paint the bed with poo. So yes I had reached my limit and called Nate sobbing. However, that only made it worse because Kali was awake by this time and with me crying she started balling herself. She wouldn't stop until I stopped. However, I guess I just needed a good cry because after that I was able to handle the rest of the day and the subsequent days as well. Sometimes though I do think I might literally pull my hair out.

These pictures are of the night before Nate left.

Hey Nicki I am sorry to hear about Bristol's naughtiness. I wish I were closer so that I could come over. We could cry together. (I cry all the time these days. :) )

I love you and remember that it will be over soon!

I am so sorry! I completely remember times like that. There is no way of getting through it without a good cry or two. Hang in there!!
