It's sad Sunday for me.
Today is Ryan's birthday, which is a good thing for him. He is 9 years old and is out doing something special with his family. TB and I called him on the phone this morning. It's just a reminder that they are so far away and that we wouldn't see them today.
It reminded me how much I miss especially Taylor. Before they moved, Taylor and I began to get closer and it was a joy to have her around. The boys are great, too, don't get me wrong but they're older and were more into playing video games than messing with Nana. But Taylor and I would play together and I bought some dolls & stuff for her to have here when she'd come over. So after they moved I felt very sad ... and then there was Tomas that filled the space.
But now Tomas is gone too and I have no idea when I will see him again. I'd hoped to see him Friday but, no surprise, that didn't happen. I mean, I shouldn't have been surprised and I wasn't but I was really hoping. It's very hard when you're with a child every single day and used to holding him and cuddling him, reading to him, singing to him and so on and then all of a sudden ... nothing.
So I feel very sad today.
Well, I think, the kids are with their real grandmothers now--David's mom is nearby and I'm assuming that Linda is living with Kennan again--and they get to spend time with them and see them and I guess I just ought to get it into my head not to have any expectations of seeing any of them. :(
