Big A.is.gone.ALL.week. What will I do without him?

Even though right now it's just like a normal Monday,

I know tonight I'll crawl into bed

alone.

I'll tuck the kids in

alone.

I'll cuddle with

a pillow.

No one will keep me

warm.

No one will wake up with

the baby
(probably not even me - uh oh).

No one will kiss me

goodnight
(at least not with a scratchy beard).

And for goodness sakes, no one will

grope me (haha...yes, it's a constant around here).

I haven't been away from Big A for more than a weekend (mostly just one night apart) since we were married. This is almost worse than leaving my kids.

Just imagine how nice it is going to be when he gets back. It is so hard, I know. Last May, my husband went to the Bahamas for work and I we missed him so much. More than I thought we would.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

-

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
