I told my hubby that I would get back to blogging while he is on deployment. I think this will be a good way to keep him in the loop about what is going on back home here with family, Sofia and myself. Today is Day 1 of this deployment. It actually went well. It was very sad, yes, but we're ok. I'm ok. He didn't have to fly out early so we got to sleep in, wake up together in bed and snuggle. I cried on his chest a bit as we snuggled there talking about him leaving. But it was good tears... it helped get all that funk out of me as well. So when we did have to say our goodbyes, the tears were less since I had let some tears flow earlier. I'm going to skip a lot of the details because I want to keep that private but I will say that it was not easy to say bye. I had to be strong for Sofia and I and I think I did just great. We've been talking to Sofia for over a week now about how Daddy would be leaving to work far away for a really long time. She seemed to understand a bit but of course she doesn't GET IT- GET IT. You know what I mean? I'm kind of glad because it would break my heart to see her cling and sob when we said goodbye. So it was a little easier. I definitely DID cry driving away. GOOD big FAT tears but again... I felt so much better afterwards.
Now we wait. Now we count down. Keep busy. Hold down the fort till he returns to us in 26 weeks. Oh yeah! I am counting down already and he just left today. Thankfully I will be seeing family in California soon. And that gives me something to look forward to for the next 6 months. [smile]
I think this song fits us perfectly right now.
Oh, Ana. I can feel your pain. It's hard to say goodbye, even if it is just for a short time, which feels like forever. I hope that Sofia, photography and family keep you busy and the time fly by faster than you expected. And of course us cyber friends are here for you. Luv ya!!
ReplyDeleteOh girl, it breaks my heart to read this...I know you will be busy and time will fly. Lova ya! xox
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine how this feels, so I'm not going to pretend to know, but I DO know what it feels like to miss someone you love, and that pain is unmeasurable. I pray for you, that the time will fly, and the three of you will be reunited again real soon:-).
