workin' on the night shift

Published May. 8, 2008

I MISS MY LITTLE GIRL!

Working nights, as I have been doing for a little over a month now, means that I get to see her for a grand total of about 6 hours a week (between naps on the weekends).  I swear she changes (both physically and verbally) every time I see her. 

I’m a dad who’s used to waking her up, getting her dressed, putting her in mommy’s car in the morning, bear hugging her the moment I get in from work in the afternoon, playing on the floor (much to my knees’ discomfort), reading books, giving baths (mommy gets tooth brushing), laying on the couch to wind down, and putting to bed nightly.

I can’t stand being away from my women. 

Wow, reading that over, I gotta sound like a pansy!  Oh well…

…and try as I might, I can’t get a pic to post tonite, maybe next time…

I know that there are many, many people who have children and work odd hours.  How do they make it work?

You sound like a GREAT DAD to me. My daughter is married now and expecting in Nov. Every time I see a brown eyed, curly headed little girl I miss my little girl. Hope you get to spend more time with her. They grow up very fast!!..Hope you have a Great Day!!... :)

I think you're pretty awesome...you're not a pansy at all, silly.

It's funny how your wife and daughter can destroy ones manlyness. I did that for about a year. It's rough

What a great dad you are, and NO your not a pansy! Things like this is what makes the time you do have with her even more precious..... Have an awesome day Montee....

montee,

You're a really great guy.

:)

I'm not even detecting a hint of pansy.

My ex worked nights to AVOID our kids.

I admire you, for missing yours like you do.

:)

Montee...I know you just joined us. But, sounding like a pansy? No, dude...Only a real man, could be so secure in themselves to post this. A real man and a daddy...good lord talk about making women hot! You wife is a blessed woman, and baby girl is a lucky little one. Hope you night goes swiftly by so that you can cuddle a little tommarrow with your little one. Have a good night and be safe!

As always, it seems. I'm ready to be done training our new guys, and let them fly solo. Next weekend should be the end of my howling at the moon. Only then can I go back to my life.

Until then, I'll stay here in The Department of Redundancy Department...

Burning the midnight oil again, I see. Watch out for storms tonight. I'm sure someone will jump on and give you some advice. You sound like an awesome dad. -Angela
