Well I dropped the ball on this thing...amazing how life has the ability to consume a person's day. I am sure there needs to be some sort of update in here. Well let's see....Our Soldier has been home almost 9 months....oh boy!! In those nine months there have been ups, downs, smiles and tears. Being a wife and mother are two of the hardest, lowest paying, most rewarding jobs there are in the world. Add being an Army wife, or a military wife in general, and the rewards and heartbreaks are tenfold. Birthdays and anniversaries are often celebrated months ahead or months after the event occurred. Vacations and travel plans are often juggled, rescheduled and juggled again, either to accommodate a PCS, TDY, FTX, or someone else's leave. The best thing about this Army life is that two stubborn people married each other. We refuse to fail and we refuse to leave each other behind. We choose to fight for our marriage and the life that we love. People get off track, I think it takes a powerful storm to get them back on track. I am thankful that we have weathered the storm and our marriage is back on track.
We have a crazy year ahead of us and we are both looking forward to this ride around the sun. As we adjust into this year we have Army schools, Kindergarten finishing, High School Graduations, a honeymoon (finally), and everything else that comes with married life.
