Holiday

No, not the Madonna song.

Think: Christmas. Think: 8 years old. Think: "I still believe in Santa Claus."

That's kind of what I'm feeling like right now. We're past the halfway mark of a 15 month deployment (yes, still 15 months - regardless if other units get knocked down to 12). In a VERY short while, I'll be seeing The Boy for R&R.

I'm already stressing about logistics and traffic to the airport and how I'll find out exactly where & when to pick him up. I'm stressing about what I'll be wearing, whether it will be a decent hair day or not, and whether our Atlanta hotel will have cable channels such that he can see his beloved Cubbies.

Joy, excitement, happiness... wow, it's been a long time since I've had these feelings!

Man, I am so excited for you two!

(As a side note, I'm sure The Boy is less than concerned with what you are wearing or whether you're having a good hair day. I'm sure you could wear hammer pants and style your hair in a mohawk and he would still think you're beautiful.)

Have fun, you guys! I'm thinking of you!
