A long year ahead...

Sadly, it's that time again:  saying goodbye to daddy for a year.  I'm a little nervous about what the year has in store for us, but am confident in the Lord's grace and mercy.  The separation will be harder on the girls than any of us and it's my intention to help them to understand how important daddy's job is.  I'm going to "try" to put some stories/comments/photos on our blog a little more often; especially since I've been so bad about it recently!
