Without our son.

With mom still out of commission we once again dropped Logan off at the house this evening where he will stay for the next several days. Once again the house is quiet, his bed is empty and my husband and I are childless...

At least for the next few days.

I know that we should get things done. Clean, do projects that we have been holding off. Do homework that has been put off for some time now. Things that we always say we will get to but lets face it with a thirteen month old, things always get put on hold.

But part of me is hoping that perhaps we can use this time to try and reconnect. To pay attention to being a husband and wife again. To do that again and not worry about things like a one year old in the middle of the night. To sit there and talk, maybe we need to talk, really talk about things that we feel. things that are going on.

Because we need to.

Of course what do I think will actually happen. None of this. We will probably end up coming home every night, sitting in front of the television or computer. Not saying to much to each other. Eat in silence. Watch a hockey game and then head off to bed.

Because while we need to do these things. While I am hoping for these things. In the long run, that is our reality.
