Day 30

Yesterday marked 4 weeks that you've been gone. sometimes it feels like yesterday....sometimes it feels like its been years since I've kissed your face. It certainly hasn't been easy, and I'm sure it hasn't for you, either, but I feel like we are closer than we have ever been. We are definitely on the same page, and I'm so ready to see what is in store for us next. Mission #1...out of Alaska. Please. It's beautiful, but I'm ready to move on.

The kiddos want to say hi.

Hiiii Daddee!! It's Sadie Mae. I misses you. Mommy made a blanket and she won't lets me lay on it. She hanged it on the wall and I can't reach it. Why would she hang a Sadie-sized blankie on the walls? She's losin it. Hurry up so you can fixes her...and get me that blankie please.

Daddy, it's Flint. I loves you and misses you and Sadie's being a brat and chewing on my ears again. I growled at her tho and mommy got mad at her for pickins on me. I love mommy. She's a good cuddler. I sleeps wif her every night that you aren't here to keeps her warm, ok? I love you daddy, bye.

Hi, Daddy, it's Shel. I miss you, daddy. I can't plays wif mommy like I can wif you. She says "no, Shelby, that hurts mommy." I don't wants to hurt mommy so I'll just wait for you, okay? So hurry up, please. I love you, Daddy. Please be safe. Mommy cries when she thinks you aren't safe. We're runnin out of tissues. Bye daddy. Huggies.

Hi daddy, it's me, Kahne. Shelby has stinky gas, and Flint climbed up on the table when mommy went upstairs and knocked over mommy's blanket pins and scared her. She kept looking at his feets. Idk why. But I was barking to gets her attention because I knowed he wasn't supposed to be up there. I's a hero like you daddy! I saved Doodle from gettin hurted! Anyways, I loves you and miss you. Be careful daddy.

Love and miss you, babe. Talk to you soon. Goodnight.
