children withdrawal

Last week was whirlwind, crazy, a daze, fight-or-flight adrenaline for 5 or 6 days straight. I was away from home for 4 days. When finally I saw Seb and Lucas, I started crying. They were these miracles sitting at the sandbox, peaceful, quiet, sacred. And the tears were despite myself, because I was just excited to see them. I never thought I would be so moved. Edifying to say the least.
