Been home 9 days now and I'm doing great. Got my tomato and green pepper plants in, the grass partially mowed, all my garden plots tilled in, so things are looking good.
Faye talked to LeChelle today and of course Gage talking on facetime came up. She asked him if he wanted to talk to PaPa and he said "that's OK, I'll see him at Christmas time"! I don't think he realizes how far away that is.  So I will of course call him in the next few days, maybe even tonight.
I never thought that in my life I would feel what I feel for him, and I do miss seeing him, but I will survive.
I just hope that I can continue writing a book for him about our relationship. After all, that is what these pages represent to me, a chronicle about life and who we are.
Love you, Gage!
PaPa
