Middle Child Mom

She and her husband haven't seen each other for a week. That is seven days too many for both of them to be apart from each other. The last time she saw his face was at SeaTac Airport as she was going through security. He waited for her to get through and she kept turning around to see if he was still there and he was. For those few moments it was comforting to know he was still there. Separated by several yards distance and security personnel and big Xray machines and conveyor belts with passengers belongings, she could still see him. She wanted to cry. She wanted him to be on the plane with her. He blew her a kiss and she turned the corner and headed to her departing gate. Tonight they will be together again. It was his turn to go through security with its Xray machines and conveyor belts with passengers belongings in tidy rectangle tubs, only there was no one there to blow him a kiss as he turned the corner headed to his departing gate. She will place it on his lips as he walks through the door tonight. Oh the anticipation....
