Missing Daddy

It's been a long week.  Not only has power gone out a lot this week, but Richard has been away.  To say that Noah misses him is an understatement.  Even though he's not really talking yet, here's how I know he really misses daddy:

• The first night Richard was gone, Noah started fussing before I put him to bed.  When I asked him what was wrong, he used sign language to tell me "more."  I replied, "more what?" While continuing to sign more, Noah said, "Da da."
• Anytime the phone rings or I'm talking to somebody on the phone, Noah starts waving and shouting (in his high-pitched voice), "Da da!  Da da!  Da da!"
• Whenever Noah gets to talk to Richard on the phone (about 2-3x/day), he'll repeatedly kiss the phone during their "conversation."

Richard comes home tomorrow...we can't wait! =)
