I am going to miss you....

Last night Zeke came to me as I was making dinner and had tears in his eyes. I asked him what was wrong and he said "When I grow up and am a daddy with my own wife and my own house, I am going to miss you". Then he started to cry so hard. I told him that I would see him all the time just like I visit my mom & dad. He responded "but you not know where my house is...and I am going to miss you". Then he cried even harder. Then I told him that he was probably going to work with daddy in the company and that he would live close by and that I will always see him. This seemed to do the trick. He gave me a hug and went upstairs to play. I love my kids and I am glad they want to stay close to their parents.
