Today was the best day of my life!
The last time I heard my son’s voice was on Monday, July 11th. He said, “I love you, mom.” That was two weeks ago. Do you understand how long that is in mom days?
Well, tonight, the wait was over. Finally, my boy was able to call us and chat for 20 minutes.
I knew he would be-able to call today, so anticipation was high. I cannot tell you how many times I checked my phone so that I could make sure my ringer was on. I could barely get any work done, and when my phone did ring, and it wasn’t him, I wanted to scream bloody murder.
But at 8 pm I heard his sweet voice. When I answered my phone, I heard him immediately laugh when I said hello.
He said, “Hi, mom, it’s me.”
My heart turned to mush; it may or may not have melted on the ground. Once I got myself together, I screamed for everyone to gather around.
We laughed about nothing and discussed when we will be flying to see him so we can shower him with hugs, presents, and kisses. Then his greedy butt said, “mom, I can’t wait for you to make an apple cobbler.”
Honey boy, when I see you, I’ll make you one for each day I’m with you!
You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

Well, you better get to slicing those apples my dear!!! 🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎 That’s gonna be some kind of apple cobbler. 😋 What a wonderful and warm “checkup” between you and your son. Probably the both of you have been a hot mess since he left, but he just didn’t want to tell you. 😉😊🤗 Now you can breathe a little softer. 🙆🏼♀️🙆🏼♀️🙆🏼♀️

To tell you the truth my Husband is probably the worst one out of all of us🤣 He keeps saying “I can’t believe my little buddy is gone”. Mind you little buddy is 6’4 280 pounds. But he still sees his little running buddy.
But I can’t wait to slice those apples up 😍😍

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can’t lie, we are both a mess!!! We go and see him in a month. Football season is tough for him but after that he’ll have a little more free time. At this point I’m just happy to hear his voice whenever I want!
But you know we’ll be at almost every game and hanging out with him as much as we can.🙌🏽
