When my girls say that, which is alot, I say "I miss Daddy too." And I give them a hug and then I'm quiet for a few seconds in case they want to say more about it. If not, I talk about something else...

Its hard to hear them say it. And hard because I want to fall apart that much more, but the hug usually makes us all feel a bit better - that we are together, the 3 of us.

Hold your head high - you are doing your utmost best at the hardest time of your life.

I'm glad you had a good Mother's Day with your daughter. Its nice when you can be with them and love them so much. I'm sure she loved it as much as you did!
