Beauty, I agree with LWB, the trip is good timing. And H is certainly noticing changes in you based on these comments: Before I go to dark, my H told me 'I miss you sometimes. I will think about us when I have time. I have too much things in my mind and am confused'. He also said " you look great. Your face is glowing"
And, I would also call him for the kids. It doesn't mean you have to talk to him much. If you do, I would make sure that you're happy, upbeat, etc. when you do. Let him see what he's missing! He'll be home alone, without you (and the kids). (Are the kids going with you?)
