For the past week it has just been Connor and me at home. Aaron was away in the field, but came home late last night. I missed him a ton and couldn't wait to see him! I kept Connor awake so that he could see his daddy before he went to sleep too. We played and watched Oz the Great and Powerful to kill time before he came home.
He sat with me and watched the movie in between playing.
Aaron got home close to 9 and Connor and Kylie were very happy to see him. After we visited for a little while, I put Connor to sleep. About an hour later, Aaron told me he wanted to wake Connor up. I told him he was crazy and if he woke him up, he was going to have to put him back to sleep. Well.... about 30 minutes later he told me to close my eyes, so I did. I could hear him go upstairs, so I thought he was grabbing his computer so we could watch a TV show. When he was coming back down, I could see {through my closed eyes} he turned the lights off. So then I just thought we were going to watch our show in the dark... that's normal. Well, when he told me to open my eyes, I couldn't help but smile. This is what I saw:
He was holding our baby and he was still fast asleep. It melted my heart to see that Aaron
missed him so much he couldn't wait until morning to see him again. I am so glad he ignored me and went to get him because then we wouldn't have shared those few special minutes of us being together as a family <3
