I know there are many more important things going on right now, but for us, our lives revolve around Gary's return. With about two months left of this excruciatingly long IA, we have three words for Daddy:
This time last year, we were making a quilt for everyone to sign and send with Gary to Iraq. It's hard to believe so much time has passed - Cole's first steps, first birthday, Olivia's first day of Kindergarten, losing her first tooth - and so much more Gary has missed. Although I would NEVER wish this kind of separation on anyone and it has undoubtedly been the hardest thing I've ever done, I have learned a lot about myself and my husband, and what we can get through together. It will be so great to have him home - to have a husband and a father for our children - and we will cherish every moment.
