Today is my little one's third birthday. I wish I was there but that is not to be.
I have already missed my middle one's birthday and will miss my oldest's by one day.
I am thinking about taking them all to Chuck E Cheese and let them run wild when I get back.
Any other suggestions?

Sounds like a plan...they will love it. I'm sure they understand by now (except Little Missy) that Dad has to earn a living. So, when ya comin' home? I know you'll be glad. I DO have an obnoxious 3.5 year old running around destroying my house as we speak. I would be more than happy to mail him to you to keep you company til you get home. He's small, can live in your pocket and doesn't eat much. Whadda ya say??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

That's a BIG two thumbs up, Rough stuff. Kids like nothing better than to run wild and create havoc especially when it's legal.
Do yourself a favor and take a couple doses of pain medication prior to going to the Big Cheeze. This will help ward off the humongous headache that you are about to receive :-Þ

I will be home around the first of August. I will be home for a month and then back out here. I will spend another long hitch over here and will be home for either Thanksgiving or Christmas.
I don't mind the cheese! I happen to love the place and will probably embarass my two oldest.
As franklymydears can tell you, I happen to be a big kid myself. Always told to grow up and act my age. Hum! No fun in that!

Rough, I would suggest that you make sure that you have special gifts for each of the girls, something that is personal between you and them. Perhaps something with their birthstone so that when they look at it it reminds them how much dad loves them and wants to be there with them but can't. Just my 2 cents!!! I was really good at making my xH a really good daddy!!!! Dawn <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

ok, I'm crossing my fingers for Christmas!! That will be soo nice for the kids. And you.
I thought about you all afternoon (don't tell hubby--he's already jealous of you, handsome!). I saw a show all about the evolution of motorcycles. It was quite interesting.
Stay out of the heat...as if! Ha ha.

Birthstones! I haven't even thought of that! Thanks Daybreak! I am in a good place for jewelry. I can even get stuff made by a goldsmith for a little of nothing!
Franklymydears what do you mean jealous? I am nothing to be jealous of! I'm just a regular old joe trying to make it in this hard world. That's all!
BTW, I sent you an e-mail the other day. Did you get it?
I am hoping for Christmas too! But I won't get my hopes up to much!
