Well my husband just got home from deployment. I am so excited. He has been gone since July... 7 long months. But he has finally made it home safe. Since he has been home i have realized that there are a lot of things that people don't understand about military families. There are a lot of hard ships we go through, not only with them being gone, but also when they come back. So i will using mylot to post what i feel everyone needs to hear. Here is just the beginning. :) Its been really excited and really challenging since my husban has gotten back. Getting use to him being in the house and helping out with things is really hard. Before he left i was never the type to do everything by myself. Never the type to live alone (with out a man).I was never ever the type to live by a schedule. But now i am. I want/need to do everything and have everything done at certain times of the day. Me and my 2 year old son had to set up a reutine in order to get through the day. And now everything has changed. I am trying to go with the flow and relax but its really hard. We are so happy to have my husband back that we need to go with the flow and relax. Otherwise our lives will be crazy.

Being seperated for such a long period of time is always rough especially on the reunion. There's a lot of changes made in each persons lives and personality that the other had not seen for awhile. So things take time but always work out as long as theres a strong love and or bond between them. Well take your time and I am sure things will get back to normal for you both to a point. You'll both adjust to the changes in each other over time. Glad he is home. God Bless him and all other soldiers. God Bless you and other family members of soldiers as well for their continued support as well. Good luck. Have a great day/evening as well. I always say, "Live for today as tomorrow never comes." HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~
