Daddy's Home!

On Thursday morning I got a call from Sean letting me know that he was in Dallas and that he would be home in 3 hours! The last I had heard he was slated on a flight out of Iraq on Wednesday morning. He was going to try to email me from Kuwait to let me know when he flight was going out. This could have taken a few days, but it only took a few hours to get off the flight from Iraq and be on their way home. It was a miracle.
The girls are doing great. They are so happy to have Daddy home. It is still surreal for me to be a complete family. Sean will be home for about a month and then off to the DC area for 14 weeks of training before he starts his masters in CA in December. We have our house on the market and will join him in Virginia as soon as it sells.

So glad to hear that Sean made it home safely! Thank you again to your whole family for the sacrifice you make on behalf of our country.

We'll be praying that your house sells quickly so you can all be together in VA as soon as possible.

Enjoy the month together as a family!
