It’s not enough
by adustyframe ~ December 7th, 2006I watched my son tonight. He was on the phone to his daddy.
His hair glistened in the light. The Christmas tree blinking behind him.
He was smiling. Laughing. Teasing his dad.
His eyes lit up when he realized I was talking to dad and he raced over for the phone. He laid on my lap chatting away.
A lump rose in my throat. I looked at this perfect precious little boy and fought back tears.
A few minutes once or twice a week isn’t enough.
He is mostly used to communicating to daddy by phone and letters. He is so happy to speak to daddy on the phone.
It’s me that it’s not enough for.
I know God sees us through. God fills up the empty places in my little boy’s heart. God is making daddy a Godly man. I know all this.
I just can’t wait until we can be a family again. I can’t wait until no one can keep us apart.
A few minutes is simply not enough.

I’m praying.
I don’t know what else to say.
