Sad Little Monkey

I received the saddest call tonight.  My little Haylee is spending a month with her Aunt and Uncle and cousins.  And she has been gone for a little less then a week now and tonight she called me to tell me good night and she loves me.  Just like we do every night before she goes to bed.  Then I talked to my sister in law for a while and everything was fine.

I came down to the office to get some more things done and could hear the home phone ringing off the hook.  Normally I don’t answer it.. (yah yah)  But I text my SIL and asked if it was her calling.  She said it is a Sad little Haylee.

SO Haylee called me and was crying.  I MISS YOU MOM.  Oh it was so hard not to cry myself.  I miss the girl like crazy.  We spend so much time together.  Since Dad works second it is just Haylee and I at night so we pretty much do everything together.  And now she is on the other end of the phone telling me how much she loves me and misses me and wants to come home… OH JUST STOP.. I wanted to jump in the car and drive down to get her.

But I help my cool and did not cry.  I could hear in her voice just how tired she was.  So I told her if she still felt that way on Friday, Mom and Dad would come and get her Saturday.  But I can almost promise you that things will change and she will not be ready to come home.

It just tears at my heart strings to hear my  baby cry and not be there to hold her in my arms and make the tears go away.

  1. Tricia,

    This is just heartbreaking – but in a wonderful way – if that makes sense. I only say that because I love to read stories that show how strong the emotion of LOVE is. Haylee is adorable – can’t wait to meet her.

  2. I can only imagine the heartbreak of being apart. I couldn’t do it and you are strong than I am. I would have lost it and just cried right along with her.
