how to help a homesick Daddy

He left with a card tucked in his tote, I don't think he has found it yet. We can't skype yet. He knows I miss him and that its tough here so I'm keeping my mouth shut about that. Keeping it happy. Keeping him involved as posible with the going ons and decision making. Have plans for us when he comes home if he wants to get out. Tentatively madeplans for him and his sis, if he is game.
WI think we are both doing better, after shifting the mood of our phone calls. He definetly sounds better, it just feels so odd holding back on communication, but i guess that is what works.
Many thanks to all of u!

 

Good point cougfan thanks

 

Boy do I sound selfcentered, I try not to comfort him anymore, just tell him thank you for upgrading our lives, muse anout the difference his sacrifice will make in the future for all of us. We will do all we can to get him driving local as soon as his recent experience is back up. Writing with a wiggly child in lap, hope this makes sense.

 

I think comfort was the wrong word

 

Thank you "Tonythetruckerdude" I try to be a good wife, if I am it is because my husband makes it easy. He is golden heart soul and mind. I have so much to learn you have all been such a help. Yes I am a stay at home mama, these years are to precious too have it any other way!

 

The word I should have used was coddle.

 

Tonythetruckerdude, your wife sounds amazing good for you two!
