Hey mommy,
Boy do we miss you. I mean, dad’s all right and all, we’ve had some laughs. It’s just, between you and me, you’re a little better at all this than he is. Like for dinner the other night. He fed us meatballs. And garlic fries. And eggs???? Who serves eggs with meatballs and garlic fries? You don’t, that’s for sure. And yesterday he almost forgot to pick us up from school!!! I mean, by the time he got there I told him, “No dad, don’t bother, I might as well just hang out here, I mean, IT’S ALMOST TOMORROW ANYWAY. And not that I’m complaining, but, I’m pretty sure I haven’t had a bath in a while, and my brother is wearing one is his sisters shirts, and last night, in the middle of the night, daddy was wandering about the house with a flashlight, muttering to himself (he was looking for something “Elsie” misplaced). Have you noticed that dad is always looking for something? Keys. Wallet. Gown. One of us.
Of course, there have been a few bright spots, like letting us eat close to a million otter pops, and getting to sleep in your bed with him “to keep mommy’s spot warm.” But on the whole, there’s just something you should know: this place we call home, well it isn’t, not when you’re away. So come home. We miss you. And soon, I think daddy’s getting a little loopy.
Love your kids.


I am laughing so hard! That is hilarious! Jami, I hope you start to feel better soon.
