Preparation for Deployment
After packing up most of Noah's things as well as mine I almost wanted to breakdown and cry. We will be moving out of the apartment in like 11-12ish days and it definitely makes me sad. This was our first place as husband and wife and then as a family of 3. Packing up things made this deployment even more real that I would like it to be. It's closer than I want it to be and the days just keep flying by and becoming one day closer to him leaving us. I'm not sure how I am gonna make it on that day I have to say goodbye. I guess like every other time and every other wife, fiance, and girlfriend there I will try to stay strong for my husband and make sure he knows that when he gets back both his son and I will be waiting for him. Until that day we will cherish every moment we have together and make the best of the last few weeks together. Until tomorrow, ♥

Erica, all I can say is I hope you are stronger there with him then I am this far away. I read your post and it makes me cry. I have had to say good bye face to face with one and both times now only get to say good bye over the phone with this one... it is the hardest thing I have ever had to do. And I wouldn't want to be in your shoes cause it is gonna be really hard for both of you. And don't say good-bye just make it see ya later. Cause he will be returning just having to go away on work trip. One would think that once they get grown that seeing them leave would get easier but that aint true. You love them as babies and you take care of them while they are sick you cheer them on when they accomplish things in life and when they are grown you listen to problems you cry and you smile with each thing that is accomplished i.e. getting married, having a baby... all of which I have done with Jonathan. And no matter how old they get you will always have that place in your heart for them. So know that while you are there crying when he is loading up and while you are trying to be strong that I am also feeling the same pain you are going through. I am always just a call away. I am a proud Air Force MOM.... and Jonathan is my HERO as well...
