The anticipation, joy, excitement of this moment was really like nothing else. Welcoming your husband home from war is such a flood of emotions, but most of all I remember feeling overwhelmingly thankful.
Thankful that we not only endured this time of hardship, but emerged strengthened in our faith.
Thankful for the family and friends that stood beside us, and supported us with their love and presence.
Thankful our children can call their Daddy a hero.
Thankful that in my most overwhelmed and fragile moments, the Lord was my strength and shield.
Thankful for the patriotism of fellow Americans who recognize what others sacrifice.
Thankful for the blessings of these precious children who make every day a joy.
Thankful for the heroes stationed around the world that bravely defend and protect us.
Thankful for the joy of anticipation that can only be experienced after a time of separation.
Thankful for all those that rejoice alongside us.
Thankful to have him safely back on home soil.
Thankful that besides the month of March, mustaches are only grown when our loved ones are away.
Thankful that children can remember how much they love...
and are loved.
Thankful that face to face communication cannot be interrupted by weak internet signals or busy phone lines.
Thankful for moments where we smile with our eyes.
And thankful to have our family made whole again.
