These boys..... and this girl!!!

PhotoStory Friday
Hosted by Cecily and MamaGeek


Oh, how I miss these boys.....

my big "big" boy, CJ
my big "hearted" boy, Ethan
and my big "willed" boy, Joseph
July is always hard for me as the boys spend the w-h-o-l-e month with their dad.... and while it is "quieter" around the house and most things are a little easier without them here; it is also very "quiet" and much moring boring!! I know I usually gripe about things being too hectic and overwhelming at times, but always duing July I miss that hussle & bussle!!!
Anyway, I got the chance to see the boys for a couple hours today..... and it was a great couple of hours.... until I had to go and my little Joseph started to cry..... and cry harder....and cling to me and not let go..... and have to be pulled off of me and get closed behind the door---quickly. Oh how that breaks my heart!!!
But thank God for this girl.....
She keeps me on my toes and keeps my mind busy while "her guys" (as she calls them) are away. She talks my ear off and has me dancing and playing house.... and scolding her every other minute as she is an independent 4-year old.... but if she weren't here, I'd surely lose my mind!!!
HAPPY WEEKEND!!!

That has to be so hard -- I really feel for you. We try to remember what life was like before kids, but suddenly when they're not around, life seems so empty.

Hang in there.

Glad you got to see them for a while, I'm sure you miss them horribly...I can't imagine! Hope the rest of the month is fun and goes by quickly for you!

I bet it's so hard for the boys to be gone! But thank goodness you have that precious little angel to keep you company and to do mother/daughter things with! I bet she loves the one on one time with you and I'm sure you with her! I hope all is well :)

Great photos by the way!

I think I would go complety crazy if my kids were gone ... I know I've often complained about them being rowdy and what not and that sometimes the hustle and bustle of daily life is hectic and stressful but I dont know what I would do with out them for more than a few hours.
(I guess Im going to find out in two when MFS and I go to Vegas for a week with out them.)
