Rich is gone...

Rich left early this morning for his flight to Shanghai, China.  I get so paranoid about him missing flights that we were there at 4am sharp for him to get his 6am flight to LA, to sit for 6 hours before his 14 hour flight across the ocean to Shanghai.  The airport was dead in SLC and we sat together for a while.  I can't believe he is really gone...  He made the cutest paper chain for us while he is gone.  Each link has an activity to do each day he is gone. 
Today the kids were supposed to each draw a picture of daddy flying in an airplane to China.  The kids did so great.  Even Max, who struggled, saying he couldn't draw an airplane.  He went through several papers and much crying and fit throwing because he wanted it to be perfect for dad.  In the end he did it all by himself as his creative juices were flowing and it turned out so cute.
We can't wait to see what else we get to do over the next 101 days.
