My Love ...

this morning ...

i am missing my husband

you see he is at a two week training camp

with the national guard ...

and it hasn't even been a week yet

*sigh*

and to be honest ...

the whole deployment thing is really starting to set in

yes

November 27th he will be deployed

to southern Iraq

and i know without a doubt that we will be fine

i trust that God is in control

i know that no matter what may come

he will see us through

i believe that all of this is not even about us ... but about glorifying him

in some way

but the hard part...

the part that makes my heart ache ...

is the missing of him

i just simply miss him

already

and he has not even gone yet...

well he is gone...

but you know

not gone as in gone deployed gone

and it's not just me

but the kids ...

the kids who ask everyday ... usually three times a day

when is dad coming home?

and yesterday morning when i told Sib in 10 days

he said...

mama that is FOREVER.

*sigh*

and i just kept thinking

he hasn't even been deployed yet

i'm sorry... i'm having a moment

you probably logged on here to here the music or see some

beautiful inspiring photos

and here you find me venting...

so this morning i find myself repeating the words

of my dad...

one day at a time

yes

one day at a time

and today ... i just miss him.
