Arrival

Today I am far too excited to be able to formulate a thought and write it down. Why am I in this state? Because my oldest child and her husband are due to arrive this evening. Woot-woot!!!

They are both serving our country so visits are not as often as a mother would like. The hardest time thus far has been her tour in Iraq. They are arriving here for a lengthier visit than usual because come the first week in February they then fly to Germany for their next assignment. They are to be there for 3 years. Of course they still are looking at possible deployment during that time to any of the hot spots which is something I like to not think about.

So…for the next few weeks….I am just going to be seriously greedy with the time I am allowed to spend with my first born. I will keep you all posted.

Here is a picture of her when she was in Iraq.
