Friday was Marti’s birthday and we decided to get away with a couple of friends for the weekend.
We’d never been away from Ellie for more than one night before, but this time, we were going for three (Friday, Saturday and Sunday).
The last time I saw Ellie was on Friday evening, so by the time I got home from work tonight, it had been 3 full days since I had seen her.
Needless to say that as much as we needed the time away from Ellie, we definitely missed her and this is what greeted us when we were reunited.
