Jeremy is on his second deployment (at this base) of six months. We are already through the first month but man has it been hard on all of us. We really planned ahead to make sure that the kids had something from Daddy before he left. He calls the kids his monkeys so he got them both stuffed monkeys and told them he filled them with lots of lots of love. That way when they miss daddy they hug the monkey and get some of Daddy's love. We also got the recordable reading books from Hallmark and listen to that every night. We left early the morning he deployed in hopes to spend some time with him. I took a few pictures before we walked out of the house. When we got there we literally had time to say I love you and bye so we didn't get anymore pictures. Jeremy means so much to our family and is missed every second throughout our day. We are able to still communicate with him so that we can keep in touch. We have been so blessed to have not had very many deployments and feel very grateful that it's only a 6 month deployment. Times get tough but we get through it because Daddy is gone but he WILL be back. I am so thankful for all the military members and all that they sacrifice. I love you my man and cant wait for the next five months to fly by.
