it's over

For the past 6 6.5 months, since Sept 18th 2009 (that's 195 days&nights) I...

took out the trash

wheeled the giant trash can to the end of the driveway

gave the dog baths

dragged the giant trash can back into the garage

mowed the lawn (front AND back!)

gave my girls baths

cleaned up dog puke

swept the spiderwebs down from the porch

mailed out Christmas New Years Valentines St. Patricks Day cards

tucked my sweet girls into bed for the night

shoveled snow (TWICE!)

pulled weeds

read nap time stories

hung Holiday decore

nursed sick babies back to health

grocery shopped

tried to fix the heater

wrapped Christmas gifts

went to the park

planted a garden

called a plumber (twice!)

ran sleeping kids from the car into the house... in the rain

all alone.

He missed...
