Dave left yesterday morning at 5:30 a.m. for a wilderness first aid training that he needed to go to for school. He is one of the sponsors for the Rangers outdoors program at his school, so he had to have this training. He gets home around 9:00 tonight. He then leaves for school in the morning before the kids get up. So, although he was only gone for one night, the kids saw him before bed on Tuesday and won't see him again until Friday after school.
So, in honor of Dave, here are the top ten reasons why we miss Daddy when is away in no particular order.
1) Mommy needs someone to listen to her incessant chatter and maybe even respond occasionally.
2) Alexa really prefers it when Daddy rather than Mommy gets up with her twice in the middle of the night. Really, she does.
3) Caleb needs someone to play trains with him. Mommy can only make very boring tracks.
4) Caleb and Alexa need someone to take them outside and play. Despite being born and raised in the south, Mommy is prone to melting in the August heat.
5) Mommy loves it when Daddy cleans up the kitchen after she has cooked dinner. Especially on bath night, so that she doesn't have to cook, clean, and bathe all right in a row.
6) Caleb needs Daddy to play on the computer with him.
7) Mommy does not like having to drag two kids out twice a day to take So Ha to and from school.
8) Mommy needs someone to get her a drink and snack at the end of a hard day when the kids are in bed.
9) Everyone likes having Daddy read to us and pray and sing with us before bed.
10) Mommy likes having someone who can actually speak English well.
We love you, Daddy.
