Bryan is deploying to Afghanistan early 2012.
In my twisted little head, I believed by broadcasting the news, it would make it 'real' - so I haven't muttered the words but three times since early this spring (one of which was a stranger on an airplane). I've been ignoring it, hoping it would go away.
But even Obama can't keep my baby home.
Emotions are running wild. I am terrified, angry, heart-broken, bitter and dispirited all at the same time. I instantly get a lump in my throat the second I think about another deployment. Another year without a husband or a father in our home. Jack's old enough to know his daddy is gone, but not old enough to understand. Another anxious, sleepless year.
Please pray for our family as we prepare to send our dearest, bravest soldier to the most dangerous place on earth.

I'm just now catching up on my blogs and I just saw this. I'm so sad to hear this...I won't bring it up to you because I know you don't want to talk about it but just wanted to let you know that I'll keep yall in my thoughts and prayers. Maybe, just maybe, things will change and he won't have to go. I'll be praying!!!!!
