In the last 6 days I have seen my hubby a total of 45 minutes. Following a week of work away from home and then a crazy weekend our paths crossed for a brief moment tonight before he was off again. But in that moment he reminded me why I love him so much. First, we pull up to our place and we find him out on the side walk waiting for us. Baby girl was so excited, "Daddy, my Daddy!" she hollered. While he scooped her up I managed to bring in our pathetic Taco Bell dinner (like I said, we've had an insane weekend). I enter our place to find daddy and daughter snuggling on the couch until dad tells her he has a surprise, a present. We'll I didn't know she had a concept of this yet but then I saw her face light up. He brings out a book he found for her and she is bouncing up and down on the couch with excitement. Then he proceeds to read it to her and watch as they make the most of their brief time together.
I have to say I was beaming with love. Because of the time he had taken to spend with our daughter I felt his love for me. I know we only said like 5 things to each other but don't actions speak so much louder than words! Hubby, I know you don't read this blog, but I love you! ( and your knarly beard too!)

Awwww! What a sweet daddy!
The times I watch Devin with Maren just make my heart swell. That is so corny to say. But it really is beautiful.
i'm with you. michael's been home a total of 20 hours over the last 2 weeks. he's not gone as often as jimmy olsen shake, but enough that i can empathize. but seriously, seing michael with shaelyn is better for me than, well, you know, that other thing... :)
