Is it too late now to say sorry?
I know I haven’t been blogging as much as usual and reading as many blog posts either, because Mr has been away for work and I’m quite snowed under here.
I’m struggling to cope with the active little one, the dogs, the books, blog and house all on my own so I apologise for lack of content.
I thought I could do it all, but I’m completely knackered after the little one goes to bed. Mr will be home soon and everything will be back to normal.
I plan to post a final update on my A – Z Challenge (Yes, I’m so behind) and a post on the Black Cat, Blue Sea Award.
I’ve been enjoying this time alone with my son. We’ve bonded in ways that I couldn’t comprehend, but he misses his father at the same time.
The little one accompanied us to the airport and saw his father leave and as soon as the realisation hit him he burst into tears. He had been crying for three days straight, in fact. It was heart breaking to me and I ended up crying my eyes out at the end of the third day thinking that I couldn’t do this anymore!
As far as my books go I have some incomplete illustrations and an incomplete paperback, everything is going so slowly. I am anxious to finish something, but I hardly have the time.
There are 3 days left on the Adventurous Alex: I Love Mom free book promotion. It’s a really great Mother’s Day book and it would be great if you could get your free copy here.
I hope you will bear with me until this blows over.
Does your partner work away from home? Let me know how you cope. I’d love to hear from you.
Love and Blessings,

Awww 😦 While it’s sad to see him sad that daddy isn’t home yet It’s good they have that bond.

It breaks my heart. It seems like he is getting over it now. He sleeps on his Dad’s side of the bed until Dad gets home.

It must be heart breaking for you to see your little one cry. But he’ll be okay, and so will you. Remember the song “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger …” And don’t worry about the blogging and lack of reading. We’ll all still be here when you’re ready. In the meantime, until Mr comes home focus on yourself and your gorgeous boy. 🙂

He doesn’t understand that his dad has to work or where his dad has gone to. He used to cry when his dad calls, but today he told his dad that he got new shoes. My parents bought him a pair of blue slippers with orange airplanes on the top. He was living in them for three days. He even slept with them on! Haha. I have to play that song on repeat 🙂

Hi Lindsay, I am very behind with my blog, and blog reading. I have decided though not to stress and just take it all in my stride and when things happen, they will happen.
I understand what you are going through with Mr being away. My hubby travels a lot, and to tell you the truth, I am now so used to it, and again, whilst he is away, just do whatever needs to be done and take things in my stride. I do cope with the day to day. I don’t enjoy being alone at night, but I don’t have much choice.
The good thing is that you have had amazing quality time with your little one and that is so special. Hope the weather is behaving your way. Hugs x

The nights are the worst. Thank you for your understanding. We are so alike in so many ways. The weather is great. Have a great weekend and Happy Mother’s Day ❤

Your little one probably doesn’t really understand yet that going away on an airplane doesn’t mean never coming back. One day at a time. One meal. One moment. Don’t worry about us — we’ll be right here when you’re ready. ❤

Mr is back home now, finally. The Little One ignored him for a day, but they are best friends now 🙂 It’s difficult to explain to him that dad isn’t gone forever.
