Wordless Wednesday Sep 29 2010
This was taken on Memorial Day this year, the day Spectrummy Daddy returned from his first trip to Afghanistan. She missed him more than she is able to express, and clung on to his hand all day long. He leaves again in a week for Kabul (a mercifully short trip), fingers crossed it goes easily for her (and therefore the rest of us). Thinking of all the military and government workers who have to leave their families for much longer, especially those with special needs children, whose worlds are rocked so much.
Happy Wordless Wednesday everyone!
What a sweet picture!!

Aaww that is such a sweet picture! Praying for his safety and for a quick return; and for peace in your household during the time he’s gone!

Beautiful. I too hope for a safe and quick return for your husband, and lots of help for you when he’s gone. (and more pictures like this when he returns!!)

Thank you all for your kind wishes. We are lucky this trip will be a short one. My heart goes out to those dealing with similar issues for a longer time period, I genuinely don’t know how you do it! A safe return for all our loved ones.
