The Weekend is Here – I Would Rather Be with My Kids

I am really dreading the weekend, because I have to work. Not that I don’t like my job. I really love what I do. I am an independent contractor who teaches graduate course in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. I travel a lot especially on weekends. The weekends are my time with my kids. Because I’m divorced I won’t be seeing them this weekend. It’s not so bad, I work about every other weekend, and some of the time I can drive home on Saturday to see them. I need the money and my daughters Sarah and Grace both understand this. I call them when I’m working just to let them know how much I love them. My emotions are an open book. I want them to know how I feel. When you are not with your kids let them know whatever you are doing that you would rather be with them. Let them know how your day is going, and ask them how their day is going as well. Speak to their heart and let them know that they are always on your mind and that you are always thinking of them.
