Then gave it to me (this was last May - I've never left since).<BR/>I had some BIG HAIR back in the day myself.

My friends all chipped in to make sure Hubby and the boys had enough to eat, but they got so sick I had to come home early. <BR/><BR/>It surprised me how painful it was to be away.

Whenever I go away and then come back to my children the thing that always strikes me first is how little their voices are - how high-pitched and young. <BR/><BR/>Funny about the skating. As a child I always loved ice skating. I visit my mother about three times a year and each time she arranged for us to go ice skating. She hasn't realised I might be getting a little ancient for it. It's nice in a way - I love it still - but I am petrified of falling.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271931822987740572.post-5662707017964786902009-02-24T05:05:00.000-08:002009-02-24T05:05:00.000-08:00Great post!

My son-in-law did a great job and enjoyed having time to spend with the baby but said he also was starting to feel isolated and lonely as the weekend wore on and the only person he was spending time with couldn't talk! The house was clean when my daughter got back -- no "pink" laundry, though, because of course he hadn't done any. Oh, well.Coffee with Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16267344646007108501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271931822987740572.post-87282523380328989222009-02-24T01:34:00.000-08:002009-02-24T01:34:00.000-08:00Oooo... that feeling of enjoyment yet pain all at ...Oooo... that feeling of enjoyment yet pain all at the same time when you are away...I can understand.
