the end is almost near

This last year has been one of the most, difficult yet most rewarding experiences one I have been through my ups and downs, sometimes I feel like this has been a very emotional roller coaster first I am happy then I am sad.
I knew that marrying a military man would not be easy, I knew that a deployment would be fourth coming and I know with out a shadow of a doubt that I will get to experiences more deployments in my life time.
But as brutal as this year has been, it is now about to come to an end, sometime in mid September I will once again be reunited with the love of my life and the best father in the whole world, I know things will take time to go back to normal, Mike and I will have to once again to learn who to live with each other, and I will have to give up my duel parenting role,which I have been accustomed to this last year, But I know that all will be well with us when we are reunited as a family. I would like to thank every one who has been there for me and my children, we are glad it is almost over.

Miles guy

Well I need lots of advice, Miles has all of the sudden become afraid of the dark and not wanting to go to sleep at night, I have tried everything from singing songs to reading him a story, snuggling him, you name it I pretty sure I have done it.
I don't know where all of this came from,, and I am at the end of my rope, I should know what is going on with him, I want to help him, but I just don't know how
I can't believe that he is going to be 3 years old on Friday, he is having a soccer party at Idaho pizza, and it is going to be fun , and I can tell you Miles is really excited for it. he is growing up so fast.

My rambling thoughts

Well every one, I have had so much happen in the last six months,I wonder why I have not gone crazy, as most of you know Mike has been deployed over in Iraq for six months, and I wish I could say they have been easy , but we have another six months to go.

it has been hard on our little family, I don't know who is having a harder time, Mike who wishes he can be here for all of the major events that are coming, Miles who is going through some stuff because daddy is not here, me who is turned in to a insomniac, because going to bed alone Stinks and waking up knowing that you have to be both mom/dad , makes it hard to get out of bed some days, but I get through my day on little sleep and a little prayer. but after this deployment is over. I will be able to rest more soundly.

tender moment

mike put Miles to bed the other night, and like every night ,Miles rides on mike like a horse. After putting him to bed mike came out and sat on the couch and he was really quiet. I asked mike if every thing went ok, and bless mikes heart he started to cry I asked him if he was alright and he said How much he is going to miss Miles and Alena before he gets deployed. I realized that this deployment is really happening and it will be hard on all of us.

mommy time out

so what a day , had to get two fillings this morning, so my mouth has been hurting since about 1 this afternoon, then later this evening , I put Alena in her swing so I could go take care of some laundry, came back and I noticed she was getting squirmy, but I did not think any thing of it, when I finally got done with laundry. went over to her and she had poop every where,poor baby, so I took her into the bathroom cleaned her up,then she was hungry but I was getting miles ready for his shower, he was fighting me , so I told mike to hold her so I take care of miles, some one else was doing my laundry, washed my skirt that had my temple recommend in it so now I have to look for that , plus my mouth was hurting and I was ready to cry and shout mommy needs a time out!!! but when you get I love you mommy from my son, a smile from my daughter, a kiss and I love you from my husband . I was all better and the need to cry was gone. what a miracle. I love being a mommy and a wife.

It is hot

well about a couple nights ago our air conditioner had a heart attack and died, that was Friday night, and the repair guy cannot get her until Monday. so right now we live in an inferno, and Thursday night mile touched our hot stove and burned his hand , it was a long night, but on a positive note he is doing better and back to being a goofy little monkey.
