How do you say goodbye?

I know I haven't done any blogs lately but knowing that I was going to have to write and think about that day Michael left has been hard for me. But I feel that maybe if I write about it, it will allow me to move on from that day.
I truly don't know if ill be able to write this blog without breaking down and crying. It is so hard to think about Michael not being here with me and the children.

This is our second deployment but it was so much harder this time saying goodbye. I feel like we had grew so much closer in the last 3-4 years and to not have him with me everyday or be able to talk to him, has really taken a toll on me. I thought I was going to be stronger but having to say good bye was the worst thing I have ever gone through. It was really tough on Michael and the kids as well. All I hope for is this year goes by fast and Michael comes home to us safe and sound.




Michael getting ready to leave. I knew I wouldn't be able to take him and drop him off, so Tony and Dusty came and got him.

My man looks so good in his new uniform.




Michael had written notes to us all and tried to read them but he couldn't do it with out breaking down so that night I read them to the children. I read Payton and Madison's notes to them every night before they go to sleep.




The worst moment of my life.
I don't think I need to say anymore about this picture.




The children saying goodbye at the door. I truly don't know how I was able to take this picture.
