Cherish the little things

Today, is our last day with Jake and we are trying to cherish the little things. We have gone swimming at the pool in my apartment. We have done laundry and talked (something we have done for years). We fixed lunch for the kids together and snuggle up on the couch to watch our "Everybody loves Raymond" DVD while the kids took their nap.
Jake cut his hair and when he was done I checked it and cut what ever spot he had missed (this is something else we have done for years). It is hard for me to believe that it will probably be months before the kids and I see Jake again. I am going to miss him so much. It is hard for me to put into words all that he means to us. We are all happy for him and we know that this separation is only for a little while and it is an answer to prayer that Jake gets to be a game warden. I will be missing him but in the mean time I will cherish the little things.
