the first week

Well, we are approaching the one week mark. It's been a long week...lots of tears (from me and Paige). We are still trying to get into a groove without daddy. Just feel a little lost without him home. I have been very fortunate to have Jason's sister here from Colorado and she has stayed with me. She has helped so much! Her hubby is in the Army as well, so she's been through all of this. I never knew I could miss him this much in such a short time! We are so used to texting and talking every day and now...nothing. It has been 2 1/2 days since we have talked. I pray all day long for his safety (and a phone call to reassure that). God has been so good to us and I am surrounded by special friends and wonderful family! I have begun the clearing out process and I am going through stuff and packing things we don't use or need. I get excited to think about being with Jason again and knowing that at the end of these 20 weeks, we will be moving together! I pack some stuff and it clears my mind...sometimes I cry, but I know that God is there to comfort me and I feel his embrace. Thank you, Lord.

Well, it's 2009! Where has the time gone? We are looking forward to a great year!
Paige, 17 months now, is the joy of our lives! She is so much fun and everyday makes us smile and laugh. She is growing up so much and talking more and more! It's getting colder now, so we have to play inside alot. Her sandbox sits empty for the winter. Soon enough, it will be spring and we will be out and about! We are planning on planting a garden - she will love being in the dirt. It will be a great outdoor activity!
Jason is still traveling back and forth to Phoenix, which is a long drive for him, but he and I are so thankful that he has a good job! He is currently involved in our church's Men's Fraternity and is the director of our AWANA's TREK (junior high) group (as am I). We are also involved in a young families group as well.
I am still staying at home and enjoying the precious time I have with Paige. I also babysit my friend's little boy as well. They are great friends already! :)
We are planning for more children, and are sure it will happen in God's time! We are so thankful for all of His provisions in our lives! HAPPY 2009!
