I've been practising 'detached parenting' for nearly two weeks now, thanks to my wife and all my kids being mostly elsewhere in various ways. The bulk of them return from Ireland this evening. Not sure how I'm going to cope with all that sudden re-attachment!

P.S. Hope you are well.

Do hope it went well.

This whole thing of being away from the children is so peculiar, I find. A day away does actually cause me to realise quite how deeply I feel about them...(can be easy to take for granted, I suppose), and it can work to re-inspire me.
