I miss my boys!

Due to unfortunate circumstances, I am (for the first time in quite a while) by myself! Denny was very brave, and took Alex to KC to visit family from Saturday morning through this coming Tuesday. So, for three days now I have been completely by myself. This may sound fun, but I have discovered that there is only so much re-discovering of one's self I can do. I have listened my music on the computer very loudly, without worry that my little one will wake up early from his nap. I have done some major spring cleaning, including the baseboards and the blinds (which I despise doing) without interruption. I also saw a chick-flick, ate sushi, and drank a martini with a girlfriend of mine. All of these things I haven't done since before I was restricted to bed rest many months ago. Tomorrow, I might try to meet up with a friend for lunch and a pedicure. I'm also busy trying to get ready for school that starts on the 23rd, so I'm doing my best to finish up with work. All of these things are keeping me very busy to say the least. However, they just aren't diminishing the fact that the two things I love the most in the world are missing. My heart aches to be with them. I love them more than I even knew possible, and I miss them so very much.

I have come to the conclusion that my life is not complete without them. I have also come to the conclusion that "me" time is very important because it reminds me just how lucky I am to have the two of them in my life. I now realize that when dealing with all the mundane tasks of life, sometimes the real meaning of it all can get lost along the way. This time to myself has reminded me that none of it matters unless I have my loving, wonderful husband and my handsome baby boy to share it with. I love you both very much, and I am extremely blessed to have you in my life!
