But that's not an option for us. And I really feel kind of sick when I think about it. I like to get my worrying started on early... But I want to be able to buy a house sometime in the next couple of years and get out of the city with her (this feeling was amplified the other day when I had her in the stroller and I had to cross the street and realized that she was in the exaust-pipe crossfire). I want her to be able to study in the States if she wants. And so on and so on. So, we do what we have to do. <BR/><BR/>I'm sure you'll both do fine, but I so understand where you're coming from. I can't even leave my dog with good friends without calling every five minutes...Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01644267534427294463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15902366.post-24872416833086156872009-01-06T03:12:00.000-05:002009-01-06T03:12:00.000-05:00That was a beautiful post.

Sam sent the link to your blog when you had Samaire and I thought it was getting close to you having to go back to work and wanted to see how you were doing. Looks like about the same that I was. I just wanted to let you know that you are not alone in the way you are feeling. You pretty much wrote exactly how I felt having to leave Miles and while I can tell you it does not get easier, it does get better. It is amazing to watch them develop friendships and independence. My heart goes out to you and wish you the best.<BR/><BR/>MegAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15902366.post-18312752221211743862009-01-05T23:34:00.000-05:002009-01-05T23:34:00.000-05:00You do GREAT by your little one, and she is a stro...You do GREAT by your little one, and she is a strong and wonderful girl. She will thrive in the world just as you two do.<BR/><BR/>We do our best and we trust.
