Halfway!! 107 days to go!

Yes! Yes! Yes! We made it to the halfway point and almost to the 100 day countdown.  (Of course that’s if they don’t change the return date again) This has been a growing and learning experience to say the least. I have had days where I moped around missing Bryan, but the majority of the days I have enjoyed spending time with Corbyn, my family, and my friends.  We count everyday....maybe that makes it longer, but then again it helps watching the number go down.  I always had respect for the families that go through deployments, but going through one myself made that level of respect go way up.  Especially the families that do it over and over and over again!! Yes, it’s a choice, but WOW what a sacrifice.  I am incredibly happy with the fact that we won’t be doing it again for a while.  

Heading to Bahrain was a blessing in disguise for sure for this family: God dealt our hand just right according to his will and way.

I plan to soak these next 3 and half months in.  Not sure when the next time will come that I get to spend so much time with my Texas family and friends.  As for Bryan, I have never wanted something so badly in my life…..a safe and quick return home to his family.

Corbyn Can't wait!!!!

Corbyn is also counting down the days!!

In the meantime he will also enjoy time with his family and friends.  Grandpa and Grandma took him to the Botanical Gardens on Sunday.
