This sucks. It sucks for Drew because he really loves Ace, and is a really good father, but for 5 weeks, his only contact with his son will be via webcam. Not being near Ace every day is going to break his heart - it's going to be really, really hard on him. It sucks for Ace because he loves his dad so much. I know he won't be especially conscious of the whole thing, but I know he'll miss his dad. It sucks for me because there are many days that Drew gets home and I have to
It sucks because he gets to go to California and I don't.
Single moms rock my world. I really, really don't see how y'all do it. I am straight up dreading this. I know it makes me sound like a crap mother, but seriously. I love staying at home with Ace and wouldn't have it any other way, but the thought of not having some escape for a few minutes is really daunting right now. I think I'm going to go out every night this week. Any of my friends with kids, be prepared, I'll be at your house pretty frequently for "play dates."
I'm such a whiner. My mom did this for YEARS, I don't know why I'm dreading it so much.

Is he going to be near us in CA?
How close do you consider L.A. to San Francisco?
That's spittin' distance.
Oh, that is really going to be a tough one. I was more-or-less a single mom for several weeks back last fall, when G was leaving before the girls woke up and coming home well after bedtime. We would see him a little bit on the weekends, and occasionally for lunch, but other than that, I was on my own. He missed them horribly, and I missed him pretty badly by the end of it, especially during the evening fussy time.
If this is a work trip, any chance you could talk his employer into flying him home on weekends, or even flying the two of you out there to visit him?
And heck yes, we will have us some playdates!
sounds like you need a nanny.. ahem.
