Poor Baby

My daycare mom was called to duty with the National Guard this week for hurricane relief. Thankfully, it wasn't overseas. However, she will be gone a minimum of 15 days and her poor daughter is so confused right now it makes me tear up. Cuddling with her on the couch seems to be helping, but it's breaking my heart. She is only 13 months old, not an age to reason with. Poor little thing.

I thank God for our troops. Especially in times like this, when I see a little face that, with every squeak of my screen door turns and looks for mommy only to be disappointed that it's my husband.

How sad! I applaud those who are in the service because I would never have the guts to sign myself up for the possibility that I would be seperated from my family. I'd cry too much!
