Sad, Busy, Week

I am so torn this week. So much is going on. I am getting ready for a vacation but still working - and trying to do 2 weeks worth of work at a time. I have a support group visit this morning, and VBS every evening until 8:30. I am going by to see daddy after the support meeting. I am so sad when I think I will be gone a whole week without seeing him. It really hurts when I can't see for myself how he is doing. I can't see his smile, I can't look into his eyes and let him know that I am still there for him. I know he will be taken care of, that is not my concern. I am concerned that when I come back, he will not reach out to me. He may not have that familiar grin when he hears my voice. I have to make time this week. I have to push myself to save what can be done at home until the late night hours so I can go see him. I can get by with just a few hours of sleep. My prayers for the next few days will be for strength.
