Finding our normal

Today, Cowboy went away on business again. I cried, I always cry when he leaves to go on business. This time it was different, I cried knowing that he wouldn't be able to see lil' buckaroo for seven days. I cried knowing I am going to be alone and solely responsible for this little guy. I cried because I am scared, I feel very overwhelmed. I love our life and the time we get to spend together and I survive the time we are apart. Who said life was easy? Today, i feel like its not.

However I did get a pleasant surprise that helped!

My friend Heather showed up in the afternoon, with all of these groceries, and said she was going to make me a late lunch. I was so happy for the company. It was like she knew I needed a little pick-me-up. She made chicken fajitas, and they were scrumptious.

She did all the work, clean up and all!!

Sizzlin'

Isn't she cute, she was a sport to let me take her picture. (She declined but I persisted and she is darling! It also helps that I was the one holding the camera and there was really no where for her to run and hide.)

Let me tell you, theses were tasty. Heck! Anything that I don't have to cook myself is tasty!

Thanks Heather!! Lunch was great, and You are welcome to make me lunch anytime. It was the perfect distraction.

I'm sorry that Cowboy had to leave again. When I have my babies, I cry everytime Tyler goes back to work too! And he gets to come back home at the end of the day! I'm sorry, I wish I could be some sort of help to you! Why did we have to move away from each other? Hang in there!

Being alone with a new baby is tough. I know you are tougher. You will get past this and just think you will get to look forward to seeing Cowboy is 7 days.

Oh Spoonsy! You are a brave woman! I hope all is well in new beautiful baby-land...even if your cowboy is gone. :( Good luck!

What a good friend! How sweet is she!?!?! I hope the fajitas (said with OUR pronounciation) were divine! You deserve to be pampered.
