Missing my baby


It hit me yesterday, this overpowering longing for both Saoirse and William. I miss them terribly. I am used to William coming and going, this is what our relationship has been like from the start. But Saoirse...being without her is breaking my heart.

I actually enjoyed the first 6 days. I like a quiet house, I don't mind being myself at all. When people asked how I was doing, I'd say fine and feel guilty that I was not as down as everyone (including myself) expected me to be. All my friends called the first 3 days, just to make sure I was okay. Yesterday I was thinking about how before William came back in July, it was always me that Saoirse wanted and I was constantly holding her. I had said one day that I didn't want to hold her all the time. And I broke down, because right now I would give anything to have her following me around, with her arms in the air, wanting me to pick her up. I think all I needed was a good cry, as I feel much better today, but still desperately missing the pair of them.

The above picture was taken the day they left, Saoirse absolutely loves yogurt.

I can imagine it must be really hard. My brother, his wife and their baby boy went to India recently. My brother only went for a week because he had to go back to work, but his wife and their son stayed another 3 weeks. Everytime we spoke to him on the phone he sounded really down. I kept thinking of my poor brother coming home after work to an empty house and not knowing what to do with himself. You must be feeling the same way.

I'm sure they miss you just as much, each day they're gone is one day closer to them coming back, small comfort I know, I'll give my little man an extra tight hug for you & Saoirse.
