Last night out of nowhere- looked at me and said, "Where is dad?" Um, he has been gone since Sunday Abby- he is on a trip. "Oh, I HATE trips!" I was quietly thinking- me, too!
I don't think I will ever get used to Blake being gone when he has to travel for work. Our days and nights just aren't the same with out daddy around. I do have to hand it to Britton though- who takes he role of being "The man of the house" very seriously when Blake is gone. He is so good for his mommmy- his sister on the other hand.....
I was really missing him today- as I had to go to the store to get some last minute items for a baby shower I was hosting this evening- Abby began to throw a fit in Wal-mart because I wouldn't buy her anything. We were about to pay and she decided she wanted some tic tacs. Well I said no, becuase that would lead to Maycee wanting some, then they would spill, etc, etc. Well Abby threw herself on the ground and started crying (mixed in with some screams). the high school chick that was checking me out probably thought I was a complete nut case as I stood there are completely ignoring this insane child that was making a huge scene. I was so proud of myself for not totally losing it in Wal-Mart and basically walking out with a smile on my face, because really, in that situation- what am I going to do, but laugh at the complete insanity of the picture.
As we were getting in the car, Abby said, "I'm tired. I think I need a nap." Ya think? Seriously.

I can totally relate to that kind of day! It is hard for me to leave Wal-mart with a smile on my face, but you have given me courage to try it next time! Thanks for sharing your story! :)
Oh the fit. Just yesterday I heard a child wailing from the front of the store (which is a feat in walmart since it's so big)and all I could think was "so glad it's not me"
