Especially when she’s out of town for a work trip.

Even if they’re only gone a few days, you can gain a new appreciation

When she lets me know her and my daughter are spending the night at her parent's house, I am always initially happy I get the place to myself, but by the end of the night I'm bummed out because nobody is here. The presence can be just as important as the things they do.

Wow. This couldn’t be more true. I enjoy when they are out running errands for an hour or two, so I can unwind or get some stuff done, but a whole night with an empty house makes me feel empty inside.

I took a flight to San Antonio last year for work, I was only there for three days and I couldn't sleep, or relax, and I barely had an appetite.
