About a month

Well It's been about a month since Chris left. Things have started to settle down a little. For the most part I am doing really well with all this, but there are times when I can't seem to stop crying. I doubt that will ever go away. It's ridiculous when you even miss the annoying things about them.

On the positive end of things... Jenny and I have been hanging out a lot lately. Her husband is deployed with Chris also. She just lives a couple blocks away. It's nice being able to lean on each other.

First call from Iraq

I got my first call from Iraq today! It was exciting to be able to talk to him again. He called for a couple seconds to tell me they were in Kuwait yesterday, but that was all I heard from him. I wish I could talk to him more. It's been a little hard today knowing he's in Iraq now. I talked to some of the other Army wives, they were all happy to hear from their guys.

4th of July

Seems like this past week gas been the longest week in the world! Things haven't been so bad. Been trying to keep busy. Sorta getting use to living by myself. Every moment of the day I am think of my wonderful husband and missing him. Mom made Zoë and Brianna matching dresses. I took lots of pictures of Zoë in her cute 4th of July outfit for Chris. They looked so cute!
