Scott is on the plane right now, heading home from Shanghai. It's been 18 days that he's been away, and he's missed some things that have happened at home.
He missed Caleb's return from his trip to Yellowstone with his grandparents. He missed three showings and two offers on the rental of our house. He's missed lots of sorting and purging sessions of the stuff in our house. He missed Seth's Early Morning Wake Up Call (see previous post). He's missed his girls smiles and snuggles. He missed two ER visits and one overnight hospital stay when Caleb broke a rib and bruised a kidney. He missed Madelyn leaving to go be with our families in Ohio. He missed Seth leaving for Kids' Camp. He missed walks and bike rides around the neighborhood. He missed Gwen pushing out the screen and falling out the window (first floor, thankfully!). He missed the boys' baseball games. He missed a fire on the patio, complete with s'mores. He missed Father's Day.
But his trip has been so necessary, and so worth it. I am so very glad he has been able to have this time in Shanghai without us, so that he could really concentrate on getting things up and running in his office, working late when he's needed to. Hopefully once we all arrive there, his work will have begun to settle into a routine (whatever that means!) and we can all reset.
We've missed you like crazy, Baby. Hurry home!

Although Lance is never gone for as long I always feel the same way. He's gone for like 1 day and I'm missing him so much it's crazy. I'm glad Scott will be home w/ ya'll soon, the reunion is always so sweet!
