We made it through another long day without Daddy. Kate had a party at school. Georgi and Reagan fell back asleep after their early morning. The house was actually clean when I got home. Dinner was partly made. I felt super lucky. Plus, Tanner was coming home. They gave him a 4 day weekend. Not that we're going to do anything remarkable this weekend. We're still cash strapped, college students, but it's great to have him home.
We didn't tell the girls that he would be coming home early. They had cans of cat food that they were using to count the days until Daddy came home and they had TWO left. I knew Tanner was about 15 minutes from home, so I had them busy doing all sorts of crazy stuff: cleaning the kitchen, vaccuming (even though it had already bee done), sweeping floors. I didn't want them to hear the car pull into the driveway. Kate was in the kitchen helping Georgi with the broom when she heard a jiggle on the front door handle. She glanced up. Saw Daddy, went back to sweeping. Then her eyes widened and she said, "Daddy?" She took a second glance and shouted, "Daddy! It's Daddy!" Reagan and Georgi came running into the room and Daddy experienced full body tackles from three girls.
Ah, the delights of daughters with daddy.
