Welcome. No matter the form of love, we always have it. God is my strength, through Him I can do all all things. After a year long deployment to Afghanistan, my husband is now home and this blog is our way of sharing our lives with family and friends. With this new year, we will be welcoming our first little addition come February. This is our way of minimizing the distance through pictures and tales of our new journey. We are so grateful for the love of our family and friends. LOVE LOVE

Live, Love, Laugh

A bittersweet month has begun. You see, I will be suffocated by a solitary life for a year here on a military base with my two animals to keep me company...and people call a woman with a million cats crazy. Oh yes, I am sure to go absolutely burzerco occassionally and rant till there is no tomorrow, but there will be a tomorrow. You can bet on it. My mother will call me, I'll walk the puppy, I'll ride like mad on my stationary bike, and I'll sail through my last year of treacherous college classes with my computer fused to my thighs for the entire afternoon and ending the day with my prayers. Having sucked down two sodas adding to my stomach buldge and devoured five chocolate bars resting on my underarm flab, I'll continue on...and on...with my late-night movies that [my husband says] I've seen a gazillion times and could probably recite them to you right now. They are, most certainly, the best love stories of all time. However, this year, I will be working on my love story from a distance. I do believe "absense makes the heart grow fonder." My love will continue growing with the letters being sent back and forth from Afghanistan proving that we will survive even when the odds are not in our favor. I do believe this will be a monumental point of our marriage in attempting the impossible but with our faith in God, I have no worries. No, the only thing I have is one big vacation from cooking! That has to be the only good thing about this deployment. If you are interested, log on and visit...maybe I'll share a letter or two. LOVE LOVE

    I love you. We'll have to keep up with each other's blogs, as I know we will. You are strong, I think much stronger than I. Did I tell you I love you? Thanks for coming into my son's life, perhaps even saving it, for now he must think before he "leaps."
