Virtual Mom

My first time away from Kate - I'm in California for work. I was a bit stressed about how our first parting would be. (more on me than her, she might not even know the difference) Anyway, I have called the kids twice, independently of night time conversations with Shad. Both times I have spoken with Reilly - BRIEFLY. This morning it was "hi Mommy", "What are you doing?", "Bye". That's it. He wasn't looking for answers, he was just doing his job as instructed "Mommy is on the phone, she wants to talk to you" - I got diss'd by my 3 year old, that's not right.
