Your father goes to many business trips because of his job. For a long time, he didn’t have to go to any of those business trips. But he got a new position right before you were born. In this new position, he might get ad-hoc business trips very frequently, but he also might have the chance of work from home, when he is not on a business trip.

He got his very first business trip in this new position today. It is a one-day fly to Chicago. He flied at 6 a.m and will be back tonight.

I was really concerned, I wasn’t sure if I could take care of you by my own. It is 8:30 now, and the past 5:30 hours were totally fine and sweet. But, honey, pray for me. My biggest fear is getting too overwhelmed and impatient with you.

Your dad is not quite sure, how he should be able to part with you for four  days or longer in the future.

You have no idea how much we all love you.
