Today has been a very hard day! I had to say goodbye to the LOVE of my LIFE for 4 whole months. Josh left this afternoon to go to Texas, where he will be in Basic Training until July 9th. We have had a few glorious days before he left. We tried to make the very most of our time together. We took Wesley on walks, we had dinners together, we had good conversations. We talked about names for our Baby GIRL, whose expected arrival is July 27th and no sooner, as we all want her Daddy to be present when she makes her grand Pink entrance! We talked about Wesley and all he is doing and will do in the upcoming months. We told each other how much we love one another, over and over, but a million times wasn't enough.
*30 minute interlude in which i was startled by a cry from the nursery, to go and find my baby boy wet and in need of new pajamas, a new diaper, much snuggling and reassurance, some milk, new sheets, and finally his teddy bear...*
Anyway, it has been a long day. There will be several of those to come, but GOD has provided MANY family members and friends who have all offered their help, and i fully intend to ask for it when i need it! Lord, my prayer is for Josh now as he is "landing" in Texas, that you would keep him healthy and strong to endure the weeks ahead of him. I give him up into your strong, able, and willing hands, he is YOURS, amen.
