The Final One.

First. HAPPY EASTER! I hope the bunny was good to everyone. He(aka my mom) was super nice to Bradley. Getting him two CUTE outfits, and a cute pushing walker thing. He was lucky and got to share a cinnamon roll with momma and then got dressed and headed out the door for conference.
Mr. Bunny was even nice to me, case of diet coke, jelly bellys' and some peeps. Perfection.

Well today marks the final holiday Husband will miss before he returns. I have wished him a Happy Birthday, Happy Halloween, Happy thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, Happy Valentine's Day,and now finally for the last time I wished him a Happy Easter, through an E-mail!
 It was hard this time. These were all of our son's first holidays. Part of me was anti holidays when it came to "celebrating" with out him. I of course pulled it together for Bradley. I guess in the end it helped me to get through these holidays that should of included him...doing it for Bradley...focusing on the making it special for him part rather then the, being sad because husband is not around part.

Three weeks from now he will be home. I wont be going to bed alone. I wont wake up alone. I wont be celebrating the next holiday alone. I wont be a single parent.
I get my best friend back. I get my sexy lover marine man back. I get my husband back!!!

Deployment is not over yet. I keep telling people, its not over until he is off the bus, and I am in his arms. Then it will be real. Then it can sink in, that he made it home safely and will be home for a long time!

I am definitely feeling for blessed today.

I just want to punch you in your face! Is that allowed? Okay, maybe I really don't want to punch you....I'm not going to lie, I'm just jealous!

But seriously, I am SUPER excited for you! The next 3wks will really just fly by with all the little things your going to do to prepare for him!
