Ohhhhhh, but it will be sooooo worth it in the end:)
In the meantime THAT STINKS!!!
Do you go down to the school with Ella for dinner? That's pretty cool.
yeah, i usually either bring him lunch or we'll go get something to eat together. At least I get to see him for a few hours, right! :) Poor Tom only gets to see Ella for about an hour a day!
How far away is his school?
I need your address. James came home from school today and asked, "Mom where does someone in our family live that's the farthest away?" I said..."Uhhh, that's definately Laura!!!" Email it to me when you get a chance. Thanks.
Oh Laura I'm sorry, being away from your hubby is the worst! But props to Tom for being so dedicated, and to you for being such a good single mommy! it will be worth it! You can always email me to vent and I'll understand :)
oh and you're right, I'm sorry I'm sorry, I really do need to do another post! Kristi is here this week so I promise to do one as soon as she leaves :)
