deja vu

Every time I go out of town on vacation (a week with my grandmother 2x a year) the little boy gets a bit maudlin according to Mama. Apparently, this time he realized what was wrong and he missed me. Usually, the report is that he just mopes. Of course, when I return, it's nutjob time. He's been a pest with his toys but I'd missed that furry little face so I haven't minded for the first day or so. He really got excited when my sister came in today (I got home yesterday). She'd been gone a week on a camping trip so she hadn't been over for about 8-9 days. Boy, was Tug happy to see her. I think he licked a whole layer of skin off her legs!!
