Missing Papa/Hubs


Greysen and I are missing Papa/Hubs lately. He had to be in the field for almost a month and we're about 1.5 weeks in. Luckily though, we have Skype. On more than one occasion, when Greysen has been a bit fussy, I've put Greysen's face up to the computer while Andrew was on and he smiles his big whole face smile that we love. We even play the NOSE, CHEEKS, CHIN game where we touch his nose, cheeks, chin and say the words in a high pitched voice and he loves it. I touch his face and Andrew makes the noise. Somehow I feel like he remembers Andrew doing this when he was home.


I think the most heartbreaking thing about Andrew being gone is the look on Andrew's face when he sees Greysen through the computer. He wants so desparately to connect with him and see his every movement and expression and not miss a thing. But he also knows that's not possible. He's been very interested in knowing every detail about the things Greysen does throughout the days.


Luckily the weather seems to be clearing a bit in the next couple days. It'll help us be able to do some things outside and do some new things to pass the days. And before we know it, he'll be home. But until then, I miss you Hubs.
