It's been 18 days since my husband left to work in another province. He will be gone for 4.5 months total. I can't believe I've made it through the first 18 days in one piece. It's been hard, but I'm starting to get into a routine. I haven't had much time for my blog, but hopefully I will have more time soon.
Makenna had a really hard time with him being gone in the beginning. She cried for about a week straight, and asked to call him just about every hour. I think she's pretty much adjusted at this point, and never even asks to call him anymore.
I know it's been just as hard on Mick as it has been on us. He says he misses us even more than he thought he would. I think this separation has actually done wonders for our marriage. We had a good relationship to begin with, but this has just made us appreciate and love each other so much more now that we see what life is like without the other one by our side.
I can't gush enough about how devoted and dedicated my husband is to our family. To know what he is sacrificing to be able to provide for us, makes me so proud of him. I can't wait to see him again, and throw my arms around him.

My heart just about dropped to my stomach when I read the title of your post. I honestly thought he left the marriage! I am sorry to hear that he will be gone for SO long but believe me, I am happy he will be returning!
