A Message for You

Spending the weekend with my husband after our 2.5-month separation was like heaven.

Dealing with the fact that I had to drive away from him and our soon-to-be home yesterday afternoon was not.

So, while I sort all those emotions out, revel in the memories we made, and long for the next five weeks to pass quickly, I'll leave you with a message from my husband.

A message he specifically has for all of you.

Be back tomorrow once I can man-handle (almost) all the facets of my weekend into some semblance of a post without crying.

Happy Monday everyone!

awww, Brittany he is just too cute.
Hope the next 5 weeks will just fly by and soon you will be with him again.

AW! :) :) :)

As for the goodbyes, I always thought that the more I had to do them (hubs and I were long distance through most of his training in the Army) the easier they would get. Sorry to tell you, they don't! But on the other hand, as my sister-in-law reminded me (she's also a milspouse), it shouldn't ever be easy to say goodbye to your lover! :)

Many congrats to him :)

Yay- he's home! After 2.5 months you can do anything for a few more weeks. Make really hard exams and start packing! :)

Look at that handsome man in his peanut butters!

I like that uniform. :)

Yep. Totally just melted a little bit.

Moe said...

Awwww that video was awesome!!! :) I guess because I'm a "new"ish reader I didn't realize that you weren't getting to bring him home with you. :( Awwww. I'm so sorry. I guess it was wishful thinking that he was stationed like where you live. Or something like that. Rats!!! I'll be praying that the time goes fast until you get to be with each other again for good!

What a sweet man! I know you guys had a blast together!! I can't wait to read all about your weekend :-)

Jessica said...

Aww, so nice to hear from him!

I know it must be so hard to turn around and leave. But think of it this way: you've already gotten through 2.5 months, 5 weeks will be a lot easier than that :-) I'm praying that time FLIES for you!

Melissa G. said...

Good to see you, Patrick!

Just Add Walter said...

aww that is so sweet! I am so glad you had a chance to see your hubby. I can't even imagine how difficult it has been.

Let me know if you need any help getting settled in your new place (I am out of school for "most" of the summer)

Awwww Britt! He is so precious! What a sweet thing for him to do. And your cute little voice in the background... I die.

Thanks so much for answering all my questions this morning! That was just what I was hoping to hear. I should be able to make the switch soon.

Love you, sweet girl! Have a lovely week. XOXO

Neha said...

I am not able to view the message :(((. It just shows a blank space out there!

But I am really very happy for you! I can understand how it is to unite after such a long period! For me, the few days gaps in between meeting my beau seem difficult enough and I can't wait for us to be together again!

Very very happy for you! Hope the rest of the time flies by real soon!

Lil' Woman said...
