One

I was talking to my sister yesterday and venting about my current stresses. She always tries to bring me back to reality-thanks! Then, this morning my son woke me up at 3:47 a.m. for about the 2nd week in a row. That is what led me to this checking this blog, this early. Today I noticed on the "Steve's Deployed Ticker" that he has been away for ONE month ONE week and ONE day.


My point is, my stresses are so minor compared to Steve's right now. I think this blog has been a good reminder to me to check myself and re-evaluate. Steve has been in a foreign country which is in shambles for a while now.

Life is great, but sometimes exhausting. I'm grateful my stresses are mine and not that of Steve's right now.

Meanwhile, Logan (Chelsea & Steve's baby) is growing quickly! He will be ONE year old in a matter of weeks. He is getting so big and looks so much like daddy.

Update on Chad: Chad is still in 29 Palms training. He has big plans of bringing 14 Marines home with him for Thanksgiving. Apparently they will all be eating with our family! That should be interesting. It's always good to see him. Plus, his little nephews and niece miss him so much.
