His Voice!

I have FINALLY heard from Mike! 

I was in AWE at the thought of him being on the other line.. of course we did not get to talk about much.. other than that we were both okay and everything was on track. 

P.S Never talk to your loved one who is miles away while driving! You will cry.. so pull over the car!

The Day The Computer Broke!

The computer did not break .. however I experienced a sad but proud moment at work today. 

I finally got news about Mike and in the middle of the news I happened to be in my classroom with my laptop open. I began to take everything all in and relized that my classroom was a mess, my computer was sitting on paint, and I was a mess emotionally.

I left the room and my director and assistant director came to the rescue for my classroom. The children where told that I was sad because my computer broke! I gathered my thoughts and emotions than headed back into my classroom. That is when one of my little ones turns and says "Ms. Monica... you can not throw a tantrum when your computer breaks! Okay!?" I stopped laughed and gave her a hug. 

I still have not heard from Mike and his events but I do know a little .. I am thankful for the friends and family that have been by my side at this moment in time. It truly makes things easier when others are around to help the pain of your loved one being away..

Most people often tell me that I knew what I was doing and that I signed up for this.. but I truly did not .. no spouse does.. and I could not help who I was meant to be with .. that was all in God's hand and his plan.

I will express to you when I can share more info I will.. but at this moment I am ready for him to be home and proud of all that he is accomplishing with the Air Force.

I will leave you with my Facebook stat of the night... 

There's nothing more satisfying than missing someone and being completely broken down and exhausted because you're so in love and more proud than you could ever put into words. Yeah it hurts, but saying it's worth it wouldn't even begin to cover it. - DD ♥

The World Is Still Moving..

At this moment I am truly surrounded by love and a crowd of amazing friends and family!

This morning I started my Monday waking up early.. for Lambeau. As I am gathering myself and my things for the day I run into this... in the kitchen. An awesome little note from the MR... I stoped took a deep breath and SMILED!

The day went awesome. I worked with my little ones.. and even gathered HUGS from all of them and we kept busy. Around nap time I get a "ding" on the phone and it is my Mr. who assured me that he was fine and in a safe zone and would call when he could. I am truly thankful for the friends and family that I have that make all of this become easyer! After work I headed to dinner with Ms. Emily the 3 year old teacher at work, and The Myers (who have come to the rescue for Lambeau and I). We laughed to mexican food and margaritas! MMMM MMM...

 I know that their are world events taking place and that is what Mike and the other men in his unit are out to take care of.. what world event.. I am still unsure of... because as the days pass there seem to be a TON of them. Sadly as I feel so distant from Mike and his journey .. I began to think about the world events and then relize that where I am standing or driving for that moment it is STILL MOVING! So I guess I need to keep busy and just keep moving on my end. Ohhh how I miss him already and it has only been about two days without hearing his voice...

I leave you with this photo my Lambeau and his daddy before he left .. how peaceful do they both look :)   



Thrown For A Loop!

This weekend the whole shop was called in LAME! I know I know... it ruined pretty much everyone's weekend plans with their families. However for me I feel like it was worst... as I write this I am sitting SOLO! Not only was Mike called into work he was sent AWAY on short notice. Yep you got that right.. GONE! Now lets back track in my last V-log I mentioned a deployment. The deployment was for the end of February. Right now that deployment is still on as he is on the deployment that he is on now. Mike will be gone and than come back and than LEAVE again! You heard that right...

Now I am a fan of everything military and I support my husband in all that he does .. but I am not sure if I work to well with short notice. I cried for hours .. but I am human and I would not be human if I did not cry. I think I was more in SHOCK that nothing was in order.. I sit with no power of attorney, no word on where he is located, when he will be back , why he is gone and the list goes on.. I am at the moment waiting for a phone call. So as the week starts pray for me and my soldier.. and all the men in his unit!
