feet finally touch the ground

Mitch and I have been glued to eachother since he got home. It was such a high to have him back home that we couldn't sleep for the past two nights. We looked exhausted, couldn't stay more than a few inches apart, and couldn't get over that we're finallyback together. He went to the base this morning but was back by noon. Today we had our very first time alone with the girls at school, since Lili started Kindergarten while he was gone. It was so momentus. We didn't do anything earthshattering, but it still felt as exciting as a date. We got his plate stickers, got Starbucks, went to a bike shop and a hardware store..weird thing was they were all my ideas. Then we went home and relaxed for about 45 minutes because I had Daisy Scouts to go to today with LiLi. It was nice to have his help in getting Ari & Myia home and getting to walk in the meeting on time for once. When Lili and I got home Mitch had done a lot of straightening and tidying up, which was so nice to have had the help.
I made a pretty filling dinner and he and I had shared a wine cooler, so he got sleepy and conked out. I fell asleep for a few minutes, but then woke up because I knew I needed to put the girls to bed and now feel wide awake..again. Oh well. At least I got to write a little.
Nice day, loved January 7th.
