So we had to know that Sammy wasn't really mad that I didn't ask permission about the car, right? Maybe. I think I have it. She isn't so mad about the car, as she is upset about the fact that things are changing at home without her. This is a kid that doesn't like to get new clothes or shoes because she doesn't like change. Plus, when I talked to her it finally came out that she misses me. And wants to come home. Can I just try to explain the pain my heart felt last night as my little girl was crying for me from 800 miles away and I couldn't hold her or make it right? I've been doing good with this whole arrangement only because my kids have been doing good with it. Now that the homesickness is setting in, I'm feeling miserable. Last night I literally was sick to my stomach with a headache because I missed them so bad. So today I will keep myself busy so that I don't think about it too much.
On a much much much sadder note, a gal that I grew up with, that is living in my mom's neighborhood, had a baby a month ago, her first girl after three boys. Her baby passed away this morning. I can't imagine. My heart goes out to her. It makes me want to hold my little girls all the more. So wherever you are, go hug someone you love today.

so so sad! homesickness is such a bummer. and OH MY GOSH! saddest thing ever loosing a baby. So sad!
Jen,
Just curious who the girl in our neighborhood is. Do I know her? So sad. Hang in there without your girls i know how rough that is. That is probably why I never go anywhere without them.
I'm sorry you are feeling miserable. It’s hard being away from your kids! Well hang in there! I am saddened by the news of the baby passing away. We will prayer for them.
First, let me just say that you are so much braver than I am! My kids can go way longer being away from me than I can being away from them! Second, I feel very sad for your friend. It just never feels right when a child dies, does it?
With all the kiddos home for the summer I don't get to read the blogs that often. (Think about that luxury when you start missing the girls) You have been one busy gal! Sorry to hear of Sammy's tantrum--I must admit I kind of was laughing b/c she's such a sweetie in class it's hard to picture her 'dark side'. If you're running out of projects I've got a tupperware cupboard that needs some help :)
Aren't kids so funny. Don't worry - I'm sure she will get over it very soon. When she sees you in a week she won't even remember that she was mad! And who doesn't love a new car?!!!
so sad...
