Short-timer!

Well... I am a sucky blogger. LOL Either my life is too boring for this, or I just don't have time, or both.

We've made our way through football season, which saw innumerable fantastic plays by #1 and an enjoyable return to the sport by #2. Now we are into the beginning of wrestling season. #1 took a first place in a recent tournament. #2 is preparing for a Tae Kwon Do belt test, which I am sure he will ace.

#3 thinks about not much more than Daddy coming home these days. I told him back in early October that we had: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, then Daddy would come home! He has patiently watched the passing of the holidays with so much excitement. I know preschoolers are normally thrilled at the approach of Christmas, but he is over the top with anticipation. He talks about it every. single. day.!

Autie is definitely a short-timer, down to a measured number of days until he is off duty and preparing to travel. That ticker on the top of my page looks soooo long, but when you consider he was only home for three months prior to this deployment - after a year's absence for a stateside deployment - you can imagine just how precious this homecoming is to us.

Happy Holidays to all!
