Leaving On A Jetplane : 36 more days to go...

Tears. These definitely cleanses the eyes and helps in easing your chest when you bear a great burden or sorrow.

I shed a lot of tears at the wee hours of this morning because my hubby is bound for the Philippines today to report to their office for work. Another ship, another contract, another year, another adventure. He is suppose to be used to this kind of job, but today it's different. The difference lies to his status, in his previous voyages, he was still single...but now, he's soon going to be a dad and he will miss the opportunity of hearing his baby's first cry. I will give birth in a month's time and that is also his reason for leaving, for us to be able to pay the hospital bills and the baby stuff needed. Sad...but ces't la vie!

Together with Marie, I send Joevy off to the airport, had a late breakfast there first and then he proceeded to the immigration counter. As of now, probably the plane is taking off....taking with it the happiness that Joevy gave me for the past couple or so months.  Luckily, I have my baby Sean with me...he will give me joy while Joevy is away. Plus, friends and relatives are always there to support and take care of me.

Yesterday, I listed some things that I will miss about my hubby, here goes:

I will miss...

• the breakfast, dinner and sometimes lunch that he usually prepares for me
• him picking and sending me to my workplace
• the way he massages and applies hot compress to my feet
• the way he passionately plays his guitar
• his being a facebook addict ( wala na akong kaagaw!)
• him making comical scenes and the jokes he cracks before bedtime
• his hugs, cuddles and kisses all over my face
• his way of telling a story to baby Sean
• his never-ending and repeated stories
• his mockery ( I remember how he said  that I now look like a mammoth....yet a beautiful one...grrr!)
• his way of putting gel/clay on his hair
• and a lot lot more...

I MISS EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM and it makes me sad...but I know I have to be strong for my baby. I need to think of happy thoughts alone!!! So help me God.
