Carter and his best bud! (AKA his dad)


Matt had to take a quick trip out of town this past weekend and Carter has been greatly affected by it. I know my boys love their dad, but I guess this weekend made me realize just how much of an impact they make on him. Carter has broken down into tears about 5 times since he left. It usually happens at night before bed (maybe due to tiredness), but randomly on occasion as well. He just gets really sad when he thinks about his dad being gone and his eyes well up with tears. I think it is in part due to Carter being similar to me in that he doesn't like change or if things are different than they normally are. However, him and his dad to have a special bond. This morning after realizing that daddy would be home tomorrow he exclaims, "Daddy, will be home tomorrow. I'm so excited! I miss him so much!" I love that they are building a great relationship and I hope it only gets stronger.
