Separation anxiety

Dear Aidan,

I feel extremely guilty these days. I come home around 6:30pm (or even later) and you are always in a foul mood. The minute you see me you start wanting to be held by me and it becomes even more difficult as the night falls. If I put you down even for a second you start freaking out. I'm not sure if it's because you are sick or it's because you seek out my attention since you don't see me anymore, but it totally breaks my heart. Today I tried putting you down in your playroom and you started crying like crazy. While you were crying you crawled to me and put your head to my chest. You even went as far as to try to climb me (so that I will hold you). It was disturbing. I went to the other side of the room and you were chasing me to try to get me to hold you. As I put you to sleep you were holding onto me so tightly. I had tears in my eyes as I witnessed this. I'm so sorry! I want to be with you too. I miss seeing you change every day. I wonder what you are up to and if you are having a good day or a bad day. I love you sweetie.
