Today is the Officer's birthday, and we are so sad that he is 8 hours away and we don't get to celebrate with him. He was able to come home for a visit over the long weekend, and it was great to finally see him again. The girls and I had so much fun spending the weekend with him. Just talking to him and eating meals with him was so nice.
The girls immediately showed him all of the exciting things that he has missed out on the last 6 weeks.... their new shoes, the train tracks they built in the basement, and their school books. One little girl got to show him her walking and talking, and she wanted her Daddy to hold her nonstop. Our little life with three kids 4 and under is super exciting, but of course their Daddy loves it all. He is such a good Dad.
So we did get to celebrate his birthday with him a few days early. Nana and the girls made him a special dessert, and we sang and gave him gifts.
I got to go on a wonderful date with the Officer, which we both treasured. Wow I miss that guy. Today on his birthday while he is away working so hard and putting in long hours of training, I hope he knows just how loved he is. I'm sure he does, because we tell him nonstop. Hopefully next year on his birthday we will all be together!! We love you so very much Officer Mik!
So glad y'all had such a wonderful weekend!!!! What an incredible family. And it will be so gratifying next year on his bday to remember back to 2015 and see all that you both have accomplished. Thanks for sharing :)
