We interrupt this blog to bring you...

How funny! I had to push "Publish" before I typed this because the movers had showed up. It's been a long time since I've been to my Little House on the Blog, but it's not that I haven't missed it or wanted to be here. Things have been hectic preparing for our International move.

I can hardly believe it's only two weeks until my soldier is home for good {or atleast until the next deployment ;)}.

Lord knows I got a job to do
I just can't wait until it's through
I keep dreamin’ bout that homebound flight
Looking for those runway lights.

Just having him home is all we could ever want right now.  I won't lie, it's been a really long, hard two years. I am grateful for the love of those who have supported us.

My blood family has been there every single bit of the way. I haven't always seen eye to eye with them in the past, especially my mama, but these two  years have helped me grow. I am so very thankful for their unconditional love.

I walked into this two years with friends I held near and dear. I walk out with friends I hold near and dear, and so grateful to God for having them in my life.

I hope to pop in back here before we actually settle down in Japan to report on our adventures. Ron & I are surprising the kids by having him come in one day earlier than they suspect. I think I've been watching too much "Surprise Homecoming." A couple days after his homecoming we are headed to our nation's great capitol, Washington D.C., for a homeschool field trip and a visit to family. I'm sure there will be much to share.

In the meantime, hugs and kisses and many beautiful Autumn wishes!
