I talked to my husband this morning, and again, his mood set my mood. I was so happy to hear his voice this morning sounding as bright and happy, just like I love to hear. It instantly made me smile. He had a much better day today than he did yesterday. He still was missing his family, naturally, but other than that his day was good.
It put me in an oddly bouyant mood today. The kids, my dad and I went shopping at the after Christmas sales. The kids were descent with their behavior. Nothing too crazy with them. I was actually pretty happy with them because I usually have to really stay on them while we are out. We came home tonight and had leftovers and got the kids to bed. My dad heads home early tomorrow morning, so the kids have to be getting up early with me to take him to the airport.
I am so grateful for good days on both sides of the world. They make this deployment so much easier to deal with and get through. So, we are another day closer to seeing Ian again. Just have to keep ticking the days off the calendar.
