Homesick

I could say a hundred things today but none of them seem to matter.

I miss LM. I miss him terribly. It has been a month and I have until the end of this one before I will lay eyes on him again. Today, it seems too much to ask of me to wait. I just want him home.

But for all the ways his experiences this summer has stretched his soul and touched his heart, I will leave him be.

Becoming a mom, and the process of childbirth was far easier and less painful than being a mom.

Oh, there is no doubt.

I totally understand....

That surely is the truth.

You are the best mom ever! You are so so so good at it. And LM seems like proof of this observation.


Also, on a slightly more selfish note, please don't leave PA! I have this weird notion that one day we will meet in person and be fabulously wonderful friends.

Have I scared you yet?

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine being away from my Hatchling for that long... of course, it would nice to be away from him long enough to go to the bathroom alone for once. =)

You are all so kind to me. Thank you for all your reassurances. It is August, afterall, and he will be home in August, so perhaps that makes it a little better.

Newly, you can't scare me, girl!! I'd love to meet you!

And you, letting him go, sound like a very good one.
