When Daddy Travels...

When Keith has to travel for work the girls miss him terribly.  They never cry hysterically when I have to travel for work, but as Keith pointed out, when I travel that usually means the girls get to see Naggy or spend a lot of time with Grammy.  When Keith travels, well, we just keep truckin' along.  :) 

A couple of weeks ago Keith had to go to St. Louis for a work for the whole week.  We didn't tell the girls he was leaving until the night before.  They cried themselves to sleep.  Carli made Keith promise he would send her a picture when he got to St. Louis so she would know he was okay. He did...

Carli was so relieved.  She wanted to call him right then and hear all about his trip on the plane and the airport, etc.  I finally got her to agree to send him a picture back...

We survived our week with no daddy.  Granted, the girls lost most of their toys when they refused to pick up but they didn't seem to even notice.  Is that a sign they have too much?  We had some playdates, played at the splash park, visited Carli's new school and did our usual swim lesson.  But the girls sure did miss Keith not coming home at 5:30.  :)
