Two weeks In August
Friday, August 13th, 2010I am in the middle of a two-week span where my boys go and stay with their father. They see him throughout the year, but this is dedicated time for them. If you asked me a couple of years ago if I ever thought I would be away from my sons for two weeks before [...]
