For the first 17 years of my life, I never had to say goodbye to anybody. None of my friends moved away, nobody close to me passed away, my parents rarely traveled, and everybody close to me lived within an hours drive. I guess it was a sheltered existence.
Since then, it seems like all I do is say goodbye. I’ve had to say goodbye to my husband countless number of times, my closest family lives 6 hours away, and I’ve had to move away from way too many friends. It is a way of life for military families, but one I will probably never get used to.
Melissa, AJ, and Sebastian are moving back to Nebraska next week. We went and saw them at the World of Wonder playground on Friday morning along with Amanda and Henry. It was cloudy and breezy so it was actually kinda pleasant to be outside. The boys had fun playing. Sebastian is getting to be sucha big boy and he wants to to everything Cade and AJ do. He is pretty cute!


When everybody started melting from the heat, we loaded up the kids and went to the new Chick-Fil-A on the east side. I don’t know where Chick-Fil-A gets their employees, but they must treat them well because they are always so nice. They bring your food out for you and somebody is always walking around asking if you need a refill and if they get you anything. Other fast food restaurants need to take some notes.
