So I guess it has been one month exactly since I posted a blog. I usually am so tired and/or have so much I'm trying to yet squeeze into the day that it just doesn't happen but then there are those times (and really right now is one of them) where when I think about it, I just don't have the heart to do it. Let me explain this.
So it was actually my mom that pointed it out to me. The day the flowers arrived, the last post I posted, just happened to be exactly 5 months since Jesse deployed. I talked on the computer with him one more time after that day and then that was that for 13 days. The only reason I got a call on the 13th day was because I was having such a hard time I had them send a message down range (it means someone from the company still stationed here emailed or called someone in the company in Iraq).
Things were good for a bit. He bought a cell phone so he could keep in touch with me more. He has to prepay on it (it runs about $0.20 per min). Now here is where my heart isn't in blogging right now. The last I heard from him, was 9 days ago. He called me the night before Valentine's Day (his Valentine's Day). We talked for a very long time, in fact, he ran out of time. He said he was going to purchase more minutes but that was the last I have heard from him.
Today marks 6 months since we said good-bye, or rather, I'll see you later. Since the kids and I last hugged and kissed him. So I guess you can figure, if you don't see a blog from me, I'm either really busy (and I'm trying so hard to surprise him with some new things on R&R, including a new me - works:) ) or my heart just isn't in it to blog and needs some time.
I know you all want to see the kids, so here are a couple pics I took Valentine's night. They are all tucked in with the new blankets I made them. I got them a little bit of candy but I thought the blankets were even better (and won't rot the teeth :) ).
