"But I am going to be so sad Mommy"

Last night my husband and I went out together to run an errand, and left the children with a babysitter, which we haven't done in a long time. As we were about to leave PJ looks up from his empty dinner plate. "Mommy, when are you going to be back?"

"After you are in bed."

"Mommy I am going to be so sad. Look I am starting to cry."

I gave him a hug and kiss as my heart melted. (And then we left to do our errand.)
