I'm posting probably for the last time for a few days, the time is 9:43 pm on Monday night, and I literally have only hours before I am reunited with the love of my life!!! We made it, this deployment is over!!! I am typing through tears as the reality is just now settling in that tomorrow morning I will be in his arms once more. It hasn't really felt real, ya know? Tonight it does. I hung my last sign at the entrance to our neighborhood, tied my welcome home balloons on our mailbox, washed our sheets, ironed them and remade the bed, ironed my outfit for tomorrow morning, drew welcome home graffiti on my car windows with white soap (it shows up great and washes off much easier than car window paint), and just now set 2 alarms to make sure I wake up in plenty of time to get ready, and take care of my last minute in-the-morning chores. Jason called around 6 tonight, they had landed at their last stop before the US of A! A small layover and they were headed back to American soil. I give thanks to the good Lord above for keeping him safe thus far, and trust that He will guide them safely home the rest of the way. I'm sorry I won't be around to your blogs for a few days, but I think y'all will understand:) I will post the homecoming pictures as soon as I can!!! Thank you all for following and praying me through this journey, you all have been such a blessing.

I'm a blubbering mess sitting here at 1:11am.....
reading your last blog....
then seeing the picture of you in Jason's embrace.......
I love you guys and I'm so excited for you!
I am thinking about you both today - Wednesday. I am picturing the leisurely joy of a cup of coffee together in your new home. The talk of what is ahead for you. The tour of the new neighborhood and town and all the things you can't wait to share with Jason.
Can't wait to see the pictures.
OH, have so much fun. We are all so thrilled for you both. God bless!
Welcome home Jason. Thank you for serving and fighting for our freedom. The sacifices you have made along with all your family and friends are unmeasurable. I thank you and I hope you enjoy being together.
