My little boy.
Dropped off my little boy at school today. Explained to him that I wasn't going to see him for a few days. He's getting to the point now where he really seems to understand that kind of stuff.
sea-of-change's mom is taking him to Houston right about now, while I'm still at work. I'll be picking him up on Sunday or possibly Monday.
It's only a few days, but I really miss him when he's gone. I really love that little guy.
At the same time, it's a relief to have a break. I need to work late tonight, and I didn't need to make some kind of special arrangements for that. Emerald and I might go see a play tomorrow. We don't have to figure out what to do about Town Hall and subsequent gatherings. Even when sea-of-change is at 100% health, and even though she's getting close, I hate to leave him with her all damn day. We usually spend some time each of us, and some time both of us, but that means it's really hard for either of us to make all-day plans.
It's also going to just be a little more peaceful around the house. Which could be sad if it went on too long, but a couple days is nice. A full night's sleep is actually a realistic possibility. Little 10 minute house projecty things only take 10 minutes. It'll be nice.
