Gone...

Welp... it's official... my hunny is gone. It was one of the hardest things i've had to do to say good-bye, but he's in God's hands. I just pray these next 4 months go by quickly. Our day started off at 2am since he had to be on base at 330am. It started off with of course, an awful nights sleep and tears in the morning... to my blow dryer going out while I was getting ready followed by more tears. Thankfully, the airlines let the spouse go through security and wait with them till they leave. It was so hard... but after our final good-bye, I did my best to pull myself together and make our long drive home. When I got home, I went upstairs to crawl back in bed and my doorbell rang! It was two of our amazing friends (whom I work with at the hospital...see pic below) that had just got off work from the night before... they came to get me out of the house and to take me to breakfast. While I didn't have much of an appetite, i tagged along. It was probably a good thing because otherwise I probably would have crawled in bed and cried till I fell asleep.

(This is Dennis and Stephanie... our amazing friends whom I am so blessed to have!...)

I know these next 4 months will be very very hard, and i'm sure there will be many many more tears, but we will make it. God is in control! And thankfully, I have amazing people to get me through this! Thank you for your prayers... we desperately need them right now! I'm hoping the tears will start to cease once we both get into our new routines.... But thank you all for being there! We couldnt thank you enough. Your prayers and support are greatly appreciated!!!
