My first blog

So I decided to start a blog while my husband is deployed over in Iraq. So here it goes.

Chris and I had our first baby last Thursday. He leaves for deployment in 2 weeks. Not sure if the hormones make this all harder, but I feel like an emotional wreck . I've been trying to take things one day at a time and be positive, but sometimes it isn't that easy. I am fortunate to have family to help me close by. I feel like this is going to be the largest trial I have ever, and will ever face. I remind myself constantly that the lord doesn't give you anything you can't handle. And your weaknesses will be made strengths.
