The custody schedule my babydaddy suggested and that we're currently trying out includes five-day stretches without my kids, which is just too long for me.
Today, on the phone with my son in the midst of one of these stretches, I sang:
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Yes, it has
When I finished singing, I asked him if he knew that song. "Yes Mom," he replied impatiently, "of course I do."
Someday he's going to look back and think the mother who sang Led Zeppelin to him on the phone while he was at his Dad's is super cool, I just know it...
