Sacrifice

Sometimes in life we must do things we don't want to do. I know I haven't spent much time updating lately, but that is because I have been taking time with my family before we were separated. I am a military wife, and I should be used to these departures. But, no matter how many times it happens, I will never get used to it.
I was not cut out to be a single parent. Taking care of it all, and with a new teenager to top it all off.
But, no matter what the future brings, I am proud of my husband and the work he does for America. I wish the war would end, but until it does I will do my part to support our troops and my husband in the work they do for our country. I will face the challenges of taking care of our home, and children alone, because I know that what he is doing is important.
It has been hard adjusting this time just as it was the other times, but I know that we will make it through because we have done it before.

Did he go already? OPSEC, I know you can't tell me dates, etc here, I just wondered if he was gone already.
