She did fine, of course, all day, although her friend told me that towards the end of the day she'd missed me.
I didn't pay any attention to it, until the moment that I put her to bed. A little voice from under the covers said: "I missed you today". My heart hurt when she said that. I literally was in physical pain for a few minutes. Even writing this still makes me feel bad. I covered her with hugs and kisses and asked if she didn't like going to camp, then. No, she answered, it was a lot of fun. And she'd played with her friend. But she'd simply missed me.
Cue this morning: I was still getting myself together when I took this photo with my cell phone.

Hearing that makes me want to have kids!! Didn't think I'd be saying that in a hurry either.
I think it is hard on all involved when our little ones start having lives separate from us. Thanks for sharing such a sweet story.
@Bun: same here. I still can't believe we are fortunate enough to have her.
@Vikki: harder than we think. See mail.
Awww...
I go with Bun - let's make a baby please.
I missed you too...
Awwwww! So sweet. Those munchkins are just the sweetest li'l thing. Reminds me to make the most of every day!
Thanks for stopping back by the ol' blog. I missed blogging, but it was harder to just do it. Go figure.
For some reason Google Reader hasn't been updating with your recent blog entries. So sorry for not stopping by more often! I will try to fix.
