I missed Mother’s Day!
I’ve been here for two months now.
A week ago it hit me that I was away from my boys.
Yesterday was Mother’s Day, it was hard. All I could think about was last Mother’s Day, getting breakfast in bed, Walking on the trail by our house and catching minnows at the Duck Pond. It was exactly what Mother’s Day is about, spending time with the ones that made you a mother.
This year, I spent it missing them and wondering if the floods in New Brunswick would have impaired us from going out to our little pond to catch minnows and frogs. I worked an early morning shift, and spent the rest of the day missing them.
I tried calling them and they weren’t home, I went to my tent and cried instead.
In just under two weeks I’ll be home on my leave. We have a few plans, including going to Nova Scotia (Peggy’s Cove)ohrdo
