Yay!

Daddy came home a day early!

Daddy was in Green Bay all week to monitor some testing on a major Coast Guard crane,

a huge job in very, very cold weather and we missed him dearly.

This week gave me a reality check big time. I rely on Mike A LOT.

And, I'm really glad that he doesn't have to travel very much.

Not sure I could handle that not to mention the girls handling it.

We survived the week and became even closer if that's possible.

They were wonderful for the most part and of course gave me a run for my money

but we survived. We were able to Skype with Daddy a few times and

talked with him as much as we could.

And, I'm glad to know that there aren't any more business trips on the horizon.

And, to brag a bit about how wonderful Mike is....

He wrote notes to all three of us for every single day he was gone.

He wrote the girls notes, drew them pictures and labeled every single one of them.

The girls and I loved them and are so thankful for Daddy.
