Closing Time
Where do I begin..
It seemed like we had a life time until it was time for me to go, however that time is now almost up. In a few days I will be living in a tent thinking of how my family and friends are doing. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your thoughts and prayers as I prepare to leave. Thank you for that and most importantly, thank you for keeping my family in your thoughts and prayers as well. Christine and the kids have a rough year ahead of them. Christine will have more than a full load of college as she continues her quest. I know that Chris will do fine, she is a strong woman with a great head on her shoulders. Also, if any of you are bored my house always needs attention! (just kidding... kinda)
I took some pictures while I was packing up all my junk and will post them when I get to Iraq. I have a cute picture of Rian trying to stand with my ACH (helmet) and IBA (vest with plates).
I still can't believe that when I get back Rian will be almost 7, Regan will be almost 5, and Cole will almost be a year and a half old. I know that I will miss so much with holidays, birthdays, dance, gymnastics, learning to walk, and the list goes on and on. We do however enjoy the life that Uncle Sam provides, so who would I be to complain?
I hope you all enjoy your holidays!
Take Care and Be Safe,
Matt
