Somebody Loves her Daddy

Justin has started his second year of dental school, but really hasn't been gone a whole lot yet (it's day 2). Emily is really feeling the pain of it though. Here are some conversations from today.

1. (On our way to the park)

E: Mom, where is daddy at?

A: Daddy is at school today.

E. But I want him to be at our house!

2. (On our way to swimming lessons after Emily got in trouble for being mean at the park)

A: Emily, it really makes mommy sad when you are mean to your friends.

E: It makes me really sad when Daddy goes go school.

3. (Passing the dental office Justin worked at over the summer)

E: Mommy, let's go to Daddy's work so I can see him.

Not to mention that I had to wake her up from her nap to go pick Justin up. She was in a deep sleep until I said, "Let's go pick up daddy." Then it was jump out of bed and act as though she'd never been asleep at all.

I think I am no longer the favorite parent.
