missing Daddy

The Firefighter works 48 hour shifts. That's two whole days without the Man-of-the-House. We see him briefly for dinner, but we really get to missing him at night.The kids cope in various ways from sleeping in our big bed with me or sleeping with stuffed animals he got them, going up to the fire station or calling him..

..and my favorite - wearing his clothes. They especially like ones from his hamper or the fire department ones, they tell me those smell most like him.

Precious angels.

Bedtime Prayers:
God, protect our Daddy while he is away.

Keep all the firefighters safe tonight.

Be with all their families too.

Thank you for giving us the bestest Daddy in the world.

Amen.
