The End of the Week

It's the end of Barry's first week away. I used to feel resentful sometimes. I used to feel like a single parent when he was spending a lot of his time on the computer, or sleeping, or reading, while I was being Mommy. I guess I didn't realize how much of a help he was. I didn't acknowledge how much he supported me.

I haven't been resentful in a long time. I know now how much Barry does. But, this week has just reminded me of how important my husband is to our family. It's been difficult without him.

It's been lonely.
