7 days

They are gone for 7 days.

I woke up this morning to a too clean, too quiet, too empty apartment. There was no morning rush, no tantrums or deep signs of frustration. The beds were made, the living room free of chaos.

I don't like it. Again, I'm reminded of what he misses out because I'm missing it right now. This time is necessary for them. They need that special time alone with their dad. They need to connect and bond. My head totally understands that but my heart is counting down the days until their return (4 days!).
