First Few Days With Hubby Gone

My Husband left for Basic Military Qualification on Saturday, it is now Monday. I've gotten through all of Saturday, and Sunday YAY ME!

All kidding aside, it was harder than I anticipated it would be.

Hubby took our daughters outside and planted flowers with them the morning that he was to leave, explaining that when they grew to be big flowers, Daddy would be back. He gave me one to plant too.

He had a hard time getting there with some crazy drivers and issues with instructions, but finally he made it and felt a bit better.

By night time I felt lonesome, I missed the companionship of his body beside me on the couch and our conversational dialogue. I kept busy cleaning and talking to friends on Facebook and hope I can maintain dialogue with friends and family to pass the time.

I don't think our girls quite understand what's going on (ages 2 and 4), they just think at this point Daddy's at work, and will be home soon just like Mommy goes, so I worry about the time when it actually sinks in.

Every day and comment right now is so raw and emotional that it's hard to focus on much else, but this is the time I got to keep at it and keep moving forward. Hoping at some point the weeks feel like they fly by, but not sure it will ever get to that stage.
