So, what do you do when you only have 10, 20, 30 minutes, maybe an hour to do something? Well, apparently, many sit down at the computer and write about what they are taking a break from. And I'm thinking, this is a good thing. We love our families so very much, even when we are taking a break, it has something to do with them.
I've spent a week alone. Alone, away from Chris, not the children. The children really noticed his absence this time. Maybe it was because the week before he was gone for a few days, and the back to back trips seemed too close for comfort. Maybe I wasn't as nice this time? Who knows. But, I will admit, I missed him more too. He's a good dad and a good husband, and he's missed when he is gone.
My little Noah has lots to say. All the time. He's very much in love with movies. I think he must go to bed at night and think of ALL the titles of ALL the movies he would enjoy watching the next day. It starts pretty early. He'll wake up around 6:30am, and by 7am, when we are loading everyone in the car, as I am buckeling his seatbelt, he ask; "Mom. Is this a day I can watch a movie?" "We'll see, Hon," I reply. "Well Mom, my head hurts because I really need to watch a movie." This phrase use to be; "My eyes hurt and they really need to watch a movie." He's become more cerebral lately I guess.
He's quite active as well. He was pretending to be "Spy Kids" during Family Home Evening. He has a backpack on and crouching down, with his arms spread wide, jumping from one piece of furniture to the other, he's looking for enemies. Not too conducive to the spirit we want during gospel disscussions. But, I must admit, I smiled.
