I just got back after leaving Tuck for about 8 days but he was able to stay at home with my son. Though my son works all day like I do, at least he was there with him to sleep and play with in the evenings. He was fine, needed a bath and some tlc of course, my son is 17 and still needs some work on his own grooming... but other than that, he was just fine. Boy, what a reception I got when I got home - the kisses wouldn't stop coming. Then, I came down with a horrible virus - stomachy thing and was unable to return to work until today so Tuck and I actually had a couple extra days home together even though I was unable to really enjoy them...
I think finding someone you know and trust is always the best option, but we do what we can, I got lots of great support from my thread "I don't want to go on vacation!!!!"
Best of luck!
