Matt's R&R was just what our family needed. It didn't go by too fast...we hardly fought...we planned just enough activities to not be bored but also not be too busy. The hardest part for me was getting used to having someone in my bed again. We went to a lodge in Lake Placid, NY for a few days. We celebrated Roger's 3rd birthday with a family party and a friends party. We made several trips to Home Depot so Matt could build a flower garden in our backyard. Matt blessed Roxie in church, finally! We enjoyed every last second of our time together. Roxie LOVED her dad more than I could imagine. When he walked into the room, her eyes would light up and she would give the biggest gummy grin.
For me, the second goodbye was easier because now we're down to just 4 more months. I can do that! For Roger, it has been a REALLY hard adjustment. We were driving in the car and out of the blue he said, "I miss daddy every day." Poor guy.

Love the update, thank you!
Love that he was able to come home, hold you all, bless little Roxy and just be in the moment. We love your guts!
