He’s coming home next weekend and will get to stay for four days. He’ll get to see Oldest Girl play in a soccer tournament and he will get to be here for church! I’m not telling the kids yet. First of all, things in the Army change without any regard to families. If a soldier is needed to work the weekend or to cover a shift, they do it. It doesn’t matter what they had planned. Also, my husband loves to surprise the kids! If their daddy has to be gone a lot, at least they get some really awesome surprises when he does come home unexpectedly!
So, I have a really fun secret to keep for six more days!
