It has been difficult to turn on the "Mom" switch on Fridays at 7pm, and then turn it back off on Sunday evening when we drop them off. I love and miss them so much. They make me laugh, they break my heart, they keep me focused on my goals to give them a wonderful life. But I had no idea they would keep me up at night, worried about their future. Amaya whispers in my ear that she has no friends, and I am devastated for the rest of the night! She is shy and reminds me of myself when I was younger. I want to now run to the playground and force other girls to see how awesome she is! But, that's also scary. Ha!
So I can't just turn that switch off and wake up Monday morning and not think of her in the lunchroom with her little tray.
So I pray for them. I shop for them throughout the week, I pick out paint colors and browse through curtains to get ideas for their rooms in the new house.
They are my kids.
