We're coming daddy!!

Greg has been away for 12 weeks now. The last time the kids have been with Greg was on July 3rd. So its time for them to see their dad. It's a blessing that we can go to see him for 2 weeks. This Friday, the 18th, we will be flying out to VA. It's going to be special because we will be there for his graduation. Mom, dad, and my mom will be there too. They will fly in on the 29th. After the graduation, Greg will have 4 free days. We will be exploring Washington DC. Then Greg will leave for Oklahoma on Oct 3rd. For the first month Greg was away the time went by slow. It felt like he was gone forever. But my visit up there in August made the time go faster.

Every night I talk to the kids about Greg. They tell me cute things about him, how they love him, and how much they miss him. One night Savy said she was going to tell dad "to come back home!" That was sweet. I felt the same, but I know once his training is over it will be all worth it. The kids are ready to see their dad and are super excited! I just pray the kids do well on the airplane. One of my fears is Savy crying her head off because she's scared during take off. Oh I hope they can make it on a 5-hour flight. Wish me luck!
