text: my husband is working in canada... i miss him so much..? i am very excited to see my husband again.. he is working in canada and he will be back home in january.. i want to prepare for his coming.. he's being home every year to stay with us for 3 months and after that he will return there again. it is 3 years now that we are like that. far away for 9 months and then a few months months together.. 3 months is very short that's why i want to give him the best care that i can give him..   i still remember that i always fail to give him my full attention for the 3 previous years. first year, i am busy with my work that's why he advice me to stop working.. second year, i got pregnant with our 3rd child and i was always in a bed rest because i have a risky pregnancy. instead of serving him, he is the one serving me.. he's the one looking for food that will not make me vomit.. i was very sensitive then that my stomach don't accept any food that i taken.. i have to be confined in  the hospital then...            i my heart goes out to you as i am currently in brazil and my husband is back in the u.s. for work. well... it certainly is hard to be away for such a long time and seems that 3 months aren't enough to catch up with all the time spent apart. i don't know what your question was... seems that you want some suggestions on how to make your husband feel welcome back into your home and things you can do to make him happy while he's with you and your family for these 3 months. well, maybe organize some outdoor activities, or since now up there is getting cold, maybe a cookout or something. maybe one day invite his friends as well. it's hard to be away, i know. well, let me ask you: why is he working so far away from home and for such a long time? is he in the military? is there a way you and your kids could go join him for a few months while he's up there? how does he handle this time being away from you and kids? no doubt you miss him dearly. could he maybe get transferred back to where you live? i personally find it very stressful to be so far away for such a long time. my personal experience is that is painful and the truth is that when you marry you're supposed to be with your mate and kids (if any). my husband seems to be having a good time by himself, he drives truck over the road. but that's my case. i don't enjoy that at all. well, i hope you reunite soon. i know your kids are the ones who suffer more. i hope your husband is staying in touch with you and them although he's far. this is very important for the kids, to feel loved by both parents. :-)
