It has been a long day. Tonight, my daughter is staying at grandma's. She's going on a trip tomorrow to see Lord of the Dance with her aunts. Her bags are packed, and her homework should be in her backpack. I'm picking her up from dance and dropping her off at my parents' house. My wife and I will have a daughter-less night.
It's strange. When my kids are gone, I really miss the chaos they bring into our household. When they're at home and in full two horsemen of the Apocalypse mode, I want to lock myself in the bathroom and suck my thumb. Most parents can relate. I think.
Saint Marty needs to get moving. His daughter is probably standing in the snow, trying to sell matches outside her dance studio to pay for her Lord of the Dance trip.
My office mate. Really. |
