gettin' gRoovy

Getting back into the groove of everyday life is a little rough. This week felt a little more normal, but the nights are still hard...not just for me but for Paige as well. I made her a blanket out of Army material and she snuggles up with that every night along with her hand-sized Army guy that she calls "daddy". She is slowly adjusting to him being gone and constantly reminds me that "daddy is at his new job. he's in Georgia". It's so sweet. 7 1/2 weeks cannot come fast enough! :) I decided to make Paige a graduation outfit out of pink camo. She loves it!
We have gotten 3 letters so far and he said there are more on the way! I am so thankful he is writing! :) It has really begun to fill the gap in our day to day talking. I am really really looking forward to being able to just pick up the phone and call him...whenever I want!

Paige and I have been so blessed to have amazing family and friends nearby. They have really supported us through all of this and it is so comforting!

We would love continued prayer for our family as we go through the next 5 months and for Jason's safety. He has really amazed me with the boldness he has shown to other men in his unit...witnessing to them. When the guys get angry about stuff, Jason quickly reminds them that getting angry is not going to fix it! I am so proud of him! We are so thankful that God has given us this opportunity to spread His word and so proud that Jason is taking it and sharing! God is SO good!

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!
