7.24.20 - Kid snippets: Clara is glad I'm here in the morning

Every Tues, Wed, Thurs I leave for work around 5:30 am and get home around 7:30 pm. I see the kids briefly, usually while I'm pretty tired, and I have to get to bed soon to get up for the next shift. I don't mind because I get most of a work week done in 3 days, but I think the kids mind a little bit. On Thursday nights when I'm putting them to bed, I remind them I will still be here in the morning.

Just now, out of nowhere, Clara said "Mom? I love you. And I'm so glad in the morning you're here!"
