We told the Kiddos we are facing a deployment. They took it well. They got very quiet for a few minutes and are now eating blackberry cobbler and acting as if nothing is wrong. We told them some of the good things that will happen when Daddy deploys and they seemed ok with it. I hope and pray they stay this way. I am just glad we got it out of the way and no tears were shed. I am off to bed. I did the yard work today and made a yummy dinner after doing some errands with Sweetnes. It wiped me out.
