This morning, while I was busy putting toys away in the back of the house, Annabelle came running from the dining room to the hallway as fast as her little legs would take her. Pitter patter, pitter patter. She was just smiling. When she found me, she said, "Datty Hooome, Datty Hooome!"
She had come to find me to tell me that her Daddy was home because she had spotted his ugly green truck in the driveway. It was so sweet to watch the excitement and joy in her eyes as she thought she had discovered something that her Mommy did not yet know.
I bent down and I told her, "Oh, sweetheart. No, Daddy is not home. He left his truck in the driveway when we took him to ride the choo choo train."
You could see the disappointment in her eyes, but she didn't miss a beat as she carried on with her day. I know she will be very excited to see her Daddy again on Friday.
Daddy,
We both love you and miss you very much! Thank you for working hard so that we can "pay" all day.
Love always and forever,
Mommy and Annabelle
