They needed the time alone. My hubby is and has been gone so much of the time. There were long stretches of time when all the kids saw of him was when he was home long enough to do laundry, cash the pay check and sleep one night.

So, it was a good time for them to really see each other in a more like friend than father/son. It's nice to see the closeness between them now.

But it definitely was a win-win situation. I'm more than glad I allowed them to go.

Dotsie,
I see you were on vacation during the timespan I was in Kissimmee. Glad you and your son had a fun time together.

Sandpiper,
My son is an over-the-road, big rig driver, too. He gets home on
weekends, though. And he has three teenage girls; so, I'm glad
of that.

gims,
I am so happy that you returned to this site. I doubt if anyone
expects you to go back. Just very glad you're here now and can
go forward. luv ya.

Before (long ago, LOL) you could stay away a week and not miss anything, but NOW, stay away a day and so many people are posting steadily now, you feel lost and miss things easily and thats only after a day.

Dots,
My American teen grands live in Goose Creek, S.C., with mom and dad; we visited them in Sept. when we went to Myrtle Beach. I've one grandbaby in Italy. They write me a steady stream of letters, though. They're so cute. I'll bet every grandmommy on here grin from ear-to-ear when their grandbabies cross their mind. LOL...

I'm way behind on my reading too. I usually come in most evenings for about an hour, but that doesn't cover much ground.

jabber, don't know how I missed this, but you are so sweet to say such. If it hadn't come back up, I'd missed all 'round...I'm glad to be back, even though it seems I don't get to 'pute' as much as I did in years past. Luv ya, too! laugh
