3 days - only 3 days

Well only 3 days till hubby gets home...wooo hooo my sanity will make it I think.

Only 3 days till....
4 kids get hugs and kisses galore
I get a long overdue hug that I need
kids get bike rides to their hearts content
kids get rollerblading till knees are too bloody to skate anymore
kids get the pool non-stop
I get a break
I get to breathe
I get to get away and shop without kids:)
I get to sleep in for once
Yard gets finally edged the way I dont' know how to do it
My sprinkler head will be fixed so the yard doesn't die
we get to go to the beach
we get to go to ikea and get those heavy closet systems so our clothes have a home
I get to smell yucky coffee every morning brewing in the kitchen
I get to smell beer in the evening sitting on the porch
WE GET TO BE A WHOLE FAMILY AGAIN.

Hurry up three days... we are ready.

  1. I don't see how you do everything you do by yourself. Hope you two get to get away by yourselves too.

  11. Oh how wonderful that your love is coming home. This brings me back to my days as a military brat. My Dad was always TDY. I would get so excited when he came home. But I think my Mom got the most excited. For all of the reasons your posted!! Give your hubs a great big hug and a thank you from me for serving our country. He is a hero.

  12. So excited for you and your family. I didn't realize you were a military wife. Thank you for sharing your hero with all of us and thank him from a grateful family here in the midwest. Was this his last tour? Enjoy your time together - you so deserve it.


    Thanks too for your thoughtful comment on my Iowa floods post.
