It seems rather odd in retrospect, but one thing that we were doing over the course of the past three weeks or so was the act of dismanteling a paper chain that was hanging on the fridge. Before Mark and Barb left, they put together this paper chain, something that the girls would have as a visual reminder of how long it was until mommy and daddy got back. It was a life line for Caitlin and myself because we could look at it and count the days until we would be worrying about only Rini!
I would not say that the chain was a representation of slavery, but the thought of only worrying about one child seems to let my mind float freely.
