My day...

This morning, Kylor was the first one up. I had a little Mommy and Son talk to him about our current situation with Daddy in Korea and everything, The other day at Target he said to me "We are the only ones without a Dad" it broke my heart when he said that, I told him " You have a Dad he just can't be here with us right now, he loves you and misses you." I thought since the other two boys were still sleeping I would have a Kylor and Me chat, I reasurred him that Daddy and loves him and we will see him again soon, I told him I loved him and that things are going to be ok. Though it's a little hard right now, soon we'll be together as a family. I asked him what he wanted for Breakfast and he said Baccon and Eggs, so we went up stairs and made it together, he even cracked a few of the eggs in all by himself. It was so sweet this is my favorite part. While he was eating his breakfast, he told me "Mom, I really liked that talk we just had" It made me feel so good. * I met a friend for lunch at Burger King, I've not seen her since before we left for the Azores, we've kept in touch these past years and we have so much in common it's not even funny! We let the kids play and it was nice to see each other, I think I'll do many things with her this year.
Orion has been great lately, no problems and the tantrums have been much less, I've really put an effort to speak to him and explain things, recognize his frustrations on things and explain things to him even more than before, I think it's working. It's been a little exhausting for me though. I've put up some work charts for the kids, Kylor likes it, Orion doesn't really care though. I'm just trying to try new things and see if we can make any improvements as a family.
I worked out tonight! I've been a little anxious about things, I hate being alone, I miss Steve so much, just not having someone to talk to after the kids go to bed is so hard, I do talk to Gma and Pam but it's just not the same. That's something Steve and I used to do alot before we moved, just talk...I miss those moments.
