AJ and I enjoyed a night out last night. My friend Jeff came over and watched the kids so we could go eat a nice dinner out. I was so tired after my glass of wine, that I was ready for bed, so we just ate and then came home. We sat outside and drank some more wine and hung out on our porch in our PJ pants and sweatshirts. We have been having an amazing time just being a family. He has been spoiling me by doing my laundry, dishes, and even making pancakes for breakfast after he didn't even go to sleep until 2 a.m. I have tried to tell him to not do anything for me, as I don't want to be in shock when he leaves.
I went back to work on Wednesday. Everyone kept asking why I was there. I was trying to keep some sort of normalcy, but today it all hit me. I thought to myself... why am I here? These very well could be the last moments I EVER get with AJ, and I am working. My job is totally supportive, so I decided that I am not working tomorrow. AJ has work to do at the drill center, but I honestly just want to be with him. So, I won't go back to work until next Thursday.
The thought of him leaving again, has started to toll on me. I knew once I hit the one week until departure, I would start feeling sad again. We have just been so busy seeing friends/family and just getting through our day to day life with the kids. Time is going way to FAST!
If you haven't heard the new Kenny Chesney song, Don't Blink.. you must.
Well, we are off to a walk. Enjoy our silly pics that Brady took of us last night.
