WAAAHHHHH!

Here it is... the day... I have to let my child go home with her father (pictured on the left). Don't get me wrong, I am always happy when she can spend time with her father and his family, but I miss that kid something awful when she stays away from me for a long time. I get homesick. Usually I give her to her father while I work at McDaniel and become very homesick. Not this time, I am giving her to him BEFORE I even go to work at McDaniel! I am already feeling homesick, and I AM HOME! Weird. That feeling never goes away. I can remember the first day I had to take her to daycare as if it were yesterday. OH BOY! I wept inside silently all day long as I taught kids. It was tough. That day was the worst! Since then time heals you enough that I can stand her going to school now haha. The only thing makes that feeling to come back is when she is away from me for more than 3 days. She's staying with her dad until August 1. Heaven knows she welcomes a break from her nagging mommy because everyday she tells me "go away", "get out of my room", "mommmmmm", etc. Never fear, she will soon start missing her mommy in a few days :)

So, today I am taking her to the mall to shop at all these ridiculous stores... Hollister, American Eagle, Aeropostale, and whatever $40 dollar a sock store she can think of! Then we are going to Toms Brooks to meet Troy (her dad) at 9 pm. Yes, 9 pm. I am going to hang on to every minute until tonight :)
