Well Grant left yesterday for another couple of months. I don't know if this time was harder or easier than last. I thought Ben understood what was happening but when he got off the bus he immediately asked where daddy was. This time I chose not to drop Grant off at the ship, instead he drove in on his own. Maybe we need to actually see him get on the ship to understand it all? Ben and I are both in a bit of a funk but I'm sure we'll slowly get into our routine and get on with things. We'll miss Grant terribly and count the days until he gets home in the meantime we'll try to have a little fun!
6 a.m. Wed. morning... It was strange, all three kids were sound asleep until Grant started to go downstairs to eat breakfast. It was if a radar went off with each one that daddy would be leaving in a few minutes and they all woke up to say goodbye.
