He flew out Wednesday morning and wasn't due back until Sunday. I found myself missing him badly as the days dragged by. In just a couple weeks of knowing each other, he was already someone who was extremely important to me. My heart warred with my head constantly while I tried to puzzle out how it happened. How did this man come into my life and make me want to do anything in my power to be with him? How had he begun to wipe away the misery that my first love left on my heart after just a couple dates? Those were the things I dwelled on each night at bedtime while I tossed and turned, and the first thing I thought of in the morning when I woke. I have to admit that while Gage was away, I was actually happy to have some time to spend with Sara and Candace in the evenings. Our summer schedules had been so crammed between all of our work or boys, that we’d barely spent any time together. When Friday finally came, the term ‘TGIF’ had never meant more to me. I was excited to have Gage back on Sunday, and woke up with the idea of planning a special date for us.
