Missed Too

A few posts ago, I mentioned Matt's work trip and how he knew I missed him while he was gone. (I practically smothered him!). What I didn't tell you is how I knew he missed me. 

Normally we eat dinner in the man-cave, an extra bedroom we use as Matt's office and t.v. room. Since we decided to grill for dinner, Matt stayed downstairs while we prepared our meal. When it was ready, he decided we'd stay in the den to eat dinner. I squeezed next to him on the loveseat; we prayed the blessing and ate. 

The t.v. was on and normally Matt gets in his t.v. mode. His focus stays on the program and eating dinner. This time, I was watching t.v. while I ate and suddenly noticed he had turned to look at me. I looked at him to find out what was on his mind and even though he was gazing at my face, he didn't seem to notice I was looking back at him. He just kept gazing, then seemed to snap out of it and turned back toward the t.v. 

A moment later, the same scenario played out again. Although it doesn't happen often, I've seen him do this before. Each time I find it funny that he doesn't seem to realize what he's doing or how intensely he's looking at me. 

When I see him gazing at me instead of the t.v., that's how I know he missed me. :)

I'm glad he missed me too.
