A test of strength.

A few days ago, Gairod was offered the opportunity to go to BC for work, for 3 weeks. He leaves tomorrow. I am trying to stay calm, and be positive, but honestly, I am freaking out. I don't want him to go!! :( Work has been slow lately, and the money will be really good, but I don't want to be a single mother for 3 weeks. I look forward to him coming home everyday, and being able to help out with the kids at dinner and bedtime. I like snuggling in bed at night, feeling safe and secure. I like having him to talk to, to rely on. He is my rock. I know that I will survive 3 weeks - it's not forever. I know that many people have husbands who regularly have to go away for longer then that. But I don't. I am not used to it, and our kids are not used to it. I am really hoping that things go smoothly, and that 3 weeks fly by. But I don't know. I think this is really going to be a test of my strength.
