P left on his 14-day trip to New Zealand with his mum and aunt yesterday. This was the reason for some of our squabbles – I was displeased that he was going ahead with such a long holiday without me and the kids, he thinks i was kicking up a big fuss over nothing.
In any case, we made peace after both of us stated our case and heard each other’s viewpoints out.
Christian said yesterday evening, hours after P left,
“I will miss daddy. I will re-ally love him when he comes back. When he’s back i will give him a BIIIIIIiiiig hug and a hamburger kiss and a woodpecker kiss!”
(Awww…a hamburger kiss is where Ch’s face gets squashed as I kiss one cheek of his and P kisses the other cheek, and a woodpecker kiss happens when P gives Ch lots of little pecks on the cheek. Ch used to act really grossed out and would wipe the side where his father kissed (not my side) but we always thought he secretly enjoyed it and this is proof!)
Tonight, Christian told me: “Daddy knows we are going to Malaysia right? Why didn’t Daddy ask me whether I will miss him a lot?” I told him his Daddy knows, his Daddy misses him and his sister a lot and knows he feels the same.
