life with us right now!

Well Dave has left me for 6 months, to go on vacation to Qatar. Well he doesn't think it's a vacation, but compared to what i do all day, every day, it defiantly is. I am here taking care of the kids, doing the laundry, making the meals, cleaning up after the meals, etc... But I do have to say that I am so proud of my husband, for what he does for our country and our family. It is not easy for him to be away form us for so long, but when duty calls you just have to deal with it. The time has been going by fast so far, he will be home in July. The kids and I miss him so much, Laynie is really the only one that understands some what of what is going on. She knows that he had to go away for work and she knows that he will come home, but not for a long time. But Andrew and Norah on the other hand. They are both too little to understand. Andrew talks to his daddy on the phone quite a bit, and i think that really helps him. And he sees pictures threw out the house and is sure to point out his dad in every one. But every time we go to base and he see a man in his uniform, he thinks he's his dad. I don't know how many time i have had to explain to random strangers that his dad is deployed and he thinks anyone that wears the same uniform is him. And Norah, well she is just too small. She has no idea what is going on. As long as she gets picked up and feed she will be fine. She doesn't care who picks her up most of the time as long as she is being held. And as me me, I can't wait for my husband to come home. To just talk to someone about other things then Mickey Mouse, or Tigger and Pooh will be so nice. I miss all the little things that most people don't really think they will miss. Like having to watch football on Sunday nights, and giving up my TV to the PlayStation. I have learned not to take things like that for granted anymore. OK well that is enough about that.
