Time

You had to go back to work today after a month of healing your knee.
At first apprehensive of the coming month- would we drive each other crazy?
It flew by as you healed, rode the exercise bike and did your exercises, took care of the animals, got to drive Abs to school and pick her up, even spending half a day with her- all the other kids clamoring for Abby's papa's attention. Abs getting to do all the jobs that day to show you.
Seems like we laughed more together in the last month than we have in the last year, you just being here and around. Your voice was so sweet on the phone asking if there is time to meet for coffee in town before work and meeting me for lunch in PA.
Your hurt knee was a gift, a month of time for just us.
