Lifes Like That

It’s been quite a few years since my husband has had to go out of town for his job. Well the time has come again. Next month he will be headed out of the country for a week to take a training course on some type of machinery. Thankfully this doesn’t happen too often but when it does the kids get extremely upset. Mainly because he won’t be here to kiss them good night.

In previous years we warned them well in advance that he had to go and they seemed to be OK with it. That was until they seen the luggage sitting in the hallway. Then I think it hit them that this is really happening. So this time we haven’t said a word to them about it. When there is about a week left before he has to go then we will tell them. And at no time will they see his luggage. Hopefully because they are older they will take the news about this trip a little better than they have previously. But only time will tell I guess.
