Time is up!

This post is dedicated to Ryan...

I am so proud of you for all that you have accomplished in the past 5 months! I can't believe all the things you have learned and how well you have done. OK, I should rephrase that...I think it's so fun that you got to learn so much and its amazing how much in such a short time. I CAN believe you have done so well because I have always known you could do it and am just so crazy proud of you. I know you will do great in your new job and can't wait to hear all your fun stories and see you all dressed up in uniform...men in uniform, nuff said! ;)

Since you have been away I have learned I NEVER want you to go away ever again! That is me putting my foot down. :) I have learned that I was spoiled and how much I grew attached to being with you ALL the time. I learned I am not so sure I like my space all that much and would much rather you be constantly following me than not. I can see how lucky I really was to get to wake up with you in the mornings, go to work with you and come home each night with you. I learned I took that for granted. I also need to let you know that being at home again I have been lucky, if you want to call it that, to have been around house guests that let me learn it could be worse. I mean, either you aren't so messy or I trained you well and I need to cool it on the little things. Brittney, your going to love this...I miss his CRUMBS! Ry they let me know you aren't far away. Little messes and those annoying crumbs all over let me know my house is filled with someone who loves me and that they are there. A house with no crumbs, clean, yes, but means the person or people you love aren't with you and that is much worse then some little crumbs on the counter. I would much rather have them there then not and I truly do miss them and I have missed you Ryan William! Glad to have you back and can't wait for this year to be over so you can leave crumbs all over again. (Check back with me next year when I had time to deal with those crumbs, my story might change.)

I love it! Yeah, you can live with crumbs! Great post Erin. You're definitely right...we tend to appreciate things/people so much more when they're not around and we need to remember to always appreciate them.
