Renae... ach, my heart is aching for you, sweetheart. I cannot imagine having my husband away from me, though I have endured two deployments (my nephews, to Iraq) - but that is really no comparison. Only that as much as it hurt to have them so far away, it must be a million times worse with a spouse.
I'm not really cheering you up, am I? Sorry about that... sometime after having my firstborn, I lost my tact. It may have occurred when we started homeschooling... there aren't enough hours in the day to put two coherent words together, much less make them sound pretty. ;-P
But I'm extending a hand out to you right now... we are just a few miles apart and I am happy to help in any way I can. I'll loan my husband out for fix-it type projects that might arise (he's a handy man by force - he had to learn with this house of ours)... and the kids and I are almost always up for playdates as long as I'm awake and pleasant enough come morning time. (I work nights at the Chick-Fil-A in front of Wal-Mart and Fazoli's, where we met, so mornings can be harsh at times, particularly when bedtime happens at 2 a.m., so 7 a.m. is often my midnight...)
Really, truly, please drop me a line... Michael has ADHD too (I think you knew that, though) and I know he hit it off with Mary when we met... we can meet at a park for an hour or two of playtime, in between our houses, just to escape the daily madness that is life.
With many blessings, and many prayers sent your way - God is always in control, even when we don't feel like we are. (That's an oxymoron, eh?)
ok, so i have to comment about the picture of you...i don't know why this caught my eye - but it could be because I have the same thing on a shelf...it looks like a can of carpet cleaner to me... maybe it's not, maybe it's a designer candle or something - but it made me smile - "you know you're a mom when you have a can of household cleaner sitting on the top shelf in the living room!" loved it...keeping it real :-)
Deborah - it is, in fact, Resolve Carpet Cleaner. It is in MY BEDROOM, no less, because Mary came walking through my bedroom to my bathroom to fetch a bandaid for a bleeding owie on her foot, leaving a blood trail the whole way. That was a couple weeks ago and I hadn't even noticed the carpet cleaner there until I took the picture. Pathetic, I know.
