The Army Has Her Again

Got Samantha back to Ft. Jackson about 11:00AM on Thursday. What a leave visit!!!! But we survived and things are back to normal. I commented to her how it seemed so "normal" while she was at home but I realized that, at least for the next six months, that normal is what we are now experiencing. The kids and I got back home about 6:30 pm tonight. I feel like I have lived in the car over the last week. I have never been so glad to have the holidays over (even thought it meant Sam going away).

But, on the other hand, we had some great times with old friends. Thanks to all of you for making it so special.
