Wake up Alarm

This morning I was leaving the house for work at exactly 8:00. As I left my bedroom and got closer to the front door, I heard a sound... like a cell phone ringing. Since Aubree was at school supposedly with her cell phone and mine was in my purse, I was momentarily stumped.

Then I knew. It was Jacob's cell phone letting him know it was 8:00 (on Sunday, August 24) and time to get up. He had set the alarm to go off even if the phone was off. So I went into his room to turn the alarm off and have a little cry. I miss him.

The alarm is ironic since if what his recruiter told him is true, Jacob has not slept since Monday morning. He gets to sleep tonight.

I wasn't sure I was going to miss him because (let's face it) he can be a bit of a butt sometimes, but I do.


That's all.
