Single motherhood is here to stay — at least a little longer

Bad news this week. My husband's company, upon finishing its job in Minnesota, will next trek to Oklahoma to finish a job that is partially done.

It means he won't be home at least until the end of September, which usually means even a week or two more, which pushes us into October. I will be lucky if he makes it home for our Oct. 1 anniversary.

Funny, I don't feel lucky. I feel blessed that I have a wonderful baby whom I adore and that we both have jobs and a great home. But I don't feel lucky. By the time Zack gets home, he will have missed more than half of Baby Ben's life.

That makes me sad. Terribly sad.
