{bittersweet}

do you hear those fighter jets flying over head?

i am saying prayers every time i hear them as they are about to deploy to afganistan.

makes your heart swell with pride, but at the same time, it's hard to imagine that within a 48 hour period beginning on the 7th, they will be flying far from here to defend us.

brings tears to my eyes.

i have a super-special cousin accompanying those jets.

counting the days until he gets back home in may.

Thinking of your family.

They are in my prayers daily... Eric's cousin's husband will be leaving soon too. All we can do is pray for them and be proud of them.

This is totally off subject, but where are the pics of the bed??? Waiting!
