Ryan and Cody

Tonight I was listening to Ryan and Cody talk on the phone. (Ryan is out of town) It was one of the cutest conversations I have ever heard. Not necesarily because of the content but because of the way they talk to eachother. Cody was talking just as plain as can be and so matter of fact. It was so cute. Cody asked Ryan if when he got home from Idaho Falls if they could go to Wal-mart and get some Batman "unnyware" (underwear) They talked about Batman and baseball and all kinds of boy things. Cody told Ryan about the mouse June caught and all sorts of little details. I was amazed! Cody just lit up, as I'm sure Ryan did because when I got back on the phone Ryan was a little choked up. He misses the kids like crazy when he is gone. He doesn't get to see them enough even when he is in town because he works 14-16 hr days. He leaves when they are still asleep in the morning and sometimes when he gets home they are in bed for the night because of school and all, but once in awhile I'll let them stay up until he gets home but even then it's Hi and Bye. Ryan is so amazing! I am in awe at how much he loves us and supports us. He is the hardest worker I know. I'm so lucky to have him. I just can't wait for summer to be over so his hours won't be so ridiculous.

Ryan is a GREAT dad! It breaks my heart too just thinking that he doesnt get to see the kids as much as he likes...he is a hard worker and it will pay off!
