He's gone

So many thoughts and prayers going to you, your family, and your DH. Thank you so much for the sacrifice you all are making. Big, giant ((HUGS)) to you.
 
Aww, I'm sorry:(
It's such a huge sacrifice that all of the military families go through. One that I am extremely thankful for.
 
I'm so sorry :( My dh spent a year in Iraq, but that was before we had a child and I can't imagine going through it now. Just take it one day at a time and keep your mind on the end when you will be together again. I know nothing can really make you feel better, but I am thinking of you and your family. Take care.
 
I am so sorry that you have having to go through this. It's times like this that a mom wishes she could take your place in life, but can't. All Pop and I can do is be there for you when you need us, pray and pray for Jaime that he remain safe as I pray for all our troops in harms way. Hopefully you will be able to take the time to fly home and be with family and friends for 6 to 8 weeks. And, we will be over next summer. Hang in there sweet pea and know that your family is praying for you, the girls and Jaime. WE LOVE YOU!

Ohhhhhh.......my heart goes out to you all. I've been thinking about you and checking your blog for an update. Prayers and good thoughts coming your way. In my experience, the first 2 weeks are the hardest, but once you're through them it does get better. Like someone said in an earlier post, go do something fun with your girls. Something special. And take some photos to send to DH.
 
((((HUGS)))) I know exactly where you are at right now :( I would sit here and say it gets easier, but honestly for me it has not. I have good days, and I have bad days... sometimes I have REALLY bad days, then again sometimes i have REALLY good days :P You really do have to take it day by day. We send dh a package each pay period, and always put some of Sophia's school work in there. We send lots of pictures to him via e-mail... Sophia does really well I think for 3 almost 4, she still has days where she demands that daddy come home now :) And she asks to look through pictures a lot... I just let her go through the motions and we talk about things as much as possible.
 
So sorry you will be without him for so long...but our family does appreciate your dh's service to our country and for your family supporting him. Hugs! Hoping that all goes ok while he is gone....that is a long time! I hope you have good family and friends to help support you and keep your spirits up.
 
oh honey I can't even imagine being in that position. I'll pray for you and your girls and for your DH too. BIG huge hugs!!!
 
I am thinking of you sweety, I just cant imagine how you are feeling but know you are cared about. Hugs!!!
 
Oh honey. ((hugs, hugs, hugs))!! Have you ever been to CinCHouse.com? It's such a wonderful community for military loved ones and more than once has been a huge support to me. Thinking of you so much!
 
Laura, I cannot begin to imagine how you and your girls must feel right now as I have never been through deployment....Big HUGS to all of you....
 
Well, it's Thursday, about 31 hours since he left and I feel a little better today. Still sad of course, but not wallowing right now. The sun is shining today which helps my mood immensley... however, now I can see how dusty my house was... so I cleaned a bit and that helped to. SO, tonight I'm just going to relaxe... maybe do some scrapping and have Sushi delivered for dinner. That always makes me feel better. LOL

I'm hoping to talk with him soon since it's about 8:30 am there and he's prolly up and about now.

Again, thank you SOOOOO much for the hugs, prayers, positive thoughts and especially the thank yous! It really really means so much when a soldier & their family's sacrifices are acknowledged and appreciated! I love you all SOOOO much!
 
(((hugs))) Laura...I hope his deployment is short and fast. I cannot even begin to imagine how much you must and will miss him.

-I am glad you are feeling better today and hope you are able to talk to him...:)
