I talked to the Boys tonight. They are back in Perth after their "Spring" vacation in Bahrain and will fly back down to school on Monday.
It doesn't really matter how good my long distance plan is..and believe me 5cents a minute to Australia is not bad...an hour or two on the phone does not take the place of that up-close-personal snuggle and chit chat that you do on the couch or sneaking that quick peak kiss as they drift off to sleep - yeah even at 13 & 14!!.
There are not too many minutes in the day that I don't think about them or wish that we were in the same place on the planet.
Sleep tight honey bees, I miss you xoxoxo Mum
I know it must be terribly hard for you, Marie, but you are giving them such a wonderful opportunity to learn and grow. It sounds to me like they have you with them all the time, even when you are not physically there.

I really know how you feel... I miss my son also, but he is not so far away like your boys, he is in the same country but on a different place. Well, he is not with me here... thats the problem.
