June has come. Classes start next week and this means hello assignments, hello projects, hello allowance and everything school. Jeff is in 5^th grade now. Two years from now, he will be graduating from grade school and welcoming the new adventures high school brings. Our ten-year old will soon be a teen. How time flies.

Yes, time flies so fast. Next week, my husband is going back to Riyadh. Just like my son, his vacation is over. While Jeff’s classes start on June10, Dario’s flight is on June12. He is going back to work, work, work. I have been trying to get this out of my mind for days – the thought of him not being here with us to celebrate Father’s Day, of missing him, of waiting for another year to hold him again, everything about him being away. This was why I haven’t written anything here for a couple of days. I just didn’t feel doing anything since the 1^st of June. Aaaahhh, the life of a wife of an OFW. Well, at least, there are YM, webcams, emails, phone calls, text messages; and I thank technology for that. Chatting with him every single day for months somehow gives me and our son the feeling of being literally close to him.

Anyway, enough for my ‘emotional appearance’. Talk to you again soon, people!
