Monday

Dearest TAG, my love,

Today was a sad day, because I had to give my kids back to their mom. I'm always amazed at how quiet it is when they are gone. They light up my life, and give me a reason for being. I'm so grateful that I have them. They surely are my inspiration, along with you, my TAG.

An interesting thing happened today. My 4 year old was looking at my phone, noticed a picture of you, and said, "Oh, that's TAG! Is that RS? Wait, no, that's EI! Can we go back there again? With TAG?" I patiently explained that maybe this summer we could go back there and make sand castles again, and if we were lucky that you, my TAG, would accompany us, but there is no promises on that account. It would be great if we could. We would all enjoy it, I'm sure.

Before we left, we had a little time, so we played pool on the pool table at my folks house. Those kids have so much energy and excitement! I wish I could bottle it up. I'd be a freaking millionaire. They were so good the whole time they were here at their grandparents. It was refreshing to see that maybe I have taught them some manners after all.

So I hauled them up to TF to deliver them to their mother. They all fell asleep on the ride. I was jealous. If only I could sleep too! Ah well. It was so nice to see their precious faces as they slept. They truly are angels and I do love them so very much.

After that I just went to the school to do some homework, I had to use the on-campus computer lab because they are the only ones that have the software program I need for my stats class. It's a big pain in the butt to have to do that, so I guess that's why they do it. After I did my homework, I just came home, finished my laundry, and got ready to go back to school tomorrow.

I'm tired tonight, my TAG. Physically exhausted. I hope that I can at least sleep a little bit tonight. I love you and miss you and hope that you are happy and well. I think about you all the time and am so happy that I got to share a little of my life with you. I hope to share more with you, but that is all in your hands now. I know only that I will love you better and more deeply than any other man ever will or can.

I love you forever and I'll always be here for you,
B
