My mom....


has to be the greatest mom ever!! she raised 5 girls...none of whom has turned out with a criminal record i might add. she did so mostly on her own as my dad was in the navy. she was also a working mother. she always took in our friends as one of her own and took care of them when needed it.

so....



HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!!

missing my husband

to my husband

it has been about 18 days since i have gotten an email from you, and before that 12. it has been 30 days since i last talked to you on the phone. it has been 81 days since i saw your face and kissed your sweet lips.

every morning i rush anxiously to the computer and check my email. is there one from you? and of course theres not, but i say 'maybe later in the day'. all through out the day i check it, no new emails it says. i think to myself 'maybe later'. later at night as i am sitting by myself because the kids are all tucked into bed i wish to hear from you, but of course there is nothing. but even though i dont get an email from you i know i am one day closer to hearing from you and one day closer to seeing you.



i miss you so much but i am so proud of what you do. i know its hard being underwater and having no contact with your family for sometimes weeks at a time. i cant imagine the thoughts that go through your head. just know that your family loves you very much and we are so proud of you!



love your wife
