Monday

The dreaded week has begun! I have to admit that I have been dreading this week since I heard AJ was going back to Iraq. This week is filled with all kinds of anxiety, panic, fear, and tears. It seems as if everytime he says good bye to another family member, I cry. So I will go through many good byes this week. AJ is working at the drill center all week and will get to have Wednesday off.

I can't seem to get moving today. I think I had a working sleep last night and don't think that my mind every shut off. I think AJ slept the same way, because we were both wide awake at 5 a.m.

I didn't get good pictures this weekend. The weather was beautiful and I was more set on taking advantage of the weather and time with AJ, that I left my camera at my grandma's on several outings. Here is one that I got. I can never get a good picture of AJ and the boys. AJ is usually closing his eyes, and the boys are usually making faces. So this is what I got!
