Yipee!!!

In a few short hours we will be picking Josh up at the airport. He has served for 2 months and one day in Afghanistan. Man have I missed him! I know it could be worse since many serve for a year or more, but your heart is never quite whole when someone you love is in harms way.
 I guess it was meant to be for Josh to join the military. He wore this jacket he loved for school pictures when he was in kindergarten (even when I wanted him to remove it to show his nice shirt underneath it! Lol!).



Here is a picture of him with his grandpa's and uncle who are all veterans, my brother Bob is missing from the photo and he is a veteran as well.
Josh's grandpa on the far left, front row, passed away while Josh was serving. That was so sad, Josh loves his grandpa's!!!

This picture is from last year. I can't wait for todays!!!

The irony of that school picture is amazing. Yes, I guess it was meant to be. What a cutie!!!

Thank you Josh for serving your country. We're so glad you are home!
