WAITING IS SO HARD........

By Toni 40,  Minnesota      Sunday, July 27, 2008

My husband and my daughters father has not lived at home since January, and he has been officially deployed to Afghanistan since March '08.......he will not be home until spring of '09.....I feel like we have come so far.....but it is still so long to wait....still so hard to explain to our 4 year old how much longer we have to go.......Just know all you kids....that your parents love u...and the one of the hardest parts of deployment is watching you go without your moms and dads.....I am so proud of my husband for serving......and equally proud of my daughters for letting go of their dad.......my prayers go out to all our soldiers and their families who patiently, and painfully wait for their return....
