My Mom left today. Its hard to believe its been three weeks already! I called her at 10pm on the night my water broke, and she managed to drop everything, pack her bags, and walk off an airplane in California by 10am the next morning. Not that I was all that surprised - she's managed to be there (physically and otherwise) for me multiple times in my life regardless what coast I happened to be on or needed to get to. And she always gets there just in time!
Im going to miss her, but I think Emma will miss her the most. After three weeks of her undivided attention, I think she'll notice the big voids in her day. Its times like these that I really wish we lived closer to my family. Im sure we'll manage fine with out her here all the time - its mostly that I dont want to have to. A girl never quite outgrows her need for a Mom, and when you have one as remarkable as mine, its hard to not be close at times like these. Im sure its hard for her as well, but after three weeks sandboxes, bubbles and more stories than she can count; she is probably looking forward to a little break.
Thank you for everything Mom!
