I'm doing this not only as a journal but also in hopes that this can be a way for our family and friends to keep up with the journey we are going on...

I know its been awhile but i havent felt like ive had anything to write about. Tonight im in the mood to write sooo we'll see how it goes. To start the dogs are both healthy!! no more sickness' in our house!! Monday, for the first time, I noticed a change in Macy. Ever since Eric left she has looked for him but mostly she does it right when i get home....like, wait a minute wheres Dad? but as of monday she walks the house about a million times whining. It really is the saddest thing ever. Eric told her before he left that he would be back and I tell her daily that he will be home august 27th. Do you think she gets it? I hope so. Biscuit is fine, I know he misses eric but he is definitely a mommas boy, well until Eric is around...then he somehow gets both of them. I used to be jealous of it, now i miss it.

Going thru this is a lot harder than i thought it would be, A LOT. And to be honest it gets harder every day. For some reason i'm having a hard time saying yay its a day closer to seeing him and being with him again, the way i see it is, great there went another day without my husband, my best friend, my heart..my everything. sucks huh? stupid right? Maybe it will get better. Im sure it will, i pray it does. I write Eric every single night. I look forward to writing him everyday because in a way i feel like I am talking to him. Its fun. I check the mail twice a day to see if i have a letter yet. It has now been 7 days, when Eric got his 15 second phone call he said he would contact me in 7 to 10 days via mail. so it SHOULD be any day now BUT as we have learned already the marines is kinda late with everything..the marines (maybe the military) motto is "hurry up and wait" we definitely know what they mean now ;)

On a way lighter note I have been doing fun things, Olivia and I had out first sleepover last Thursday it was sooooo much fun. We ate popsicles (erics popsicles)



gave her a bath and then played with the dogs




then read books and went to bed. It was also great waking up at 6:45 am...to play. ;)

Waylon got dedicated last Sunday. Dedicated to God and it was an amazing service. It really was so sweet. Savannah and Danny got him a white silk suit which was adorable.



Dannys mother has passed on, but they wanted a way to represent her being there and they did an great job of making it happen. They took a flower from her funeral and placed it on Waylons shoe so she could be with him the whole time. It was so sweet.









Other than those two fun things Ive just been working and spending time with friends. A lot of our friends play in cornhole tournaments and pretty much every night, somewhere, someone, is playing. So i do have things to do. Although when I come home to let the dogs out for a while and feed them I dont want to leave so i stay in. luckily and surprisingly to me I have not been scared at all. YAY!! Its also kinda weird not watching CNN and ESPN everynight, but im not complaining ;)

I guess thats it for now, except for giving you todays bible verse, i thought it was a great one to wake up to this morning!

2 Samuel 7:28 And now, O Lord God, you are God, and your words are true, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.

love always.
