Been a hot minute

Things have been so busy for me and for my husband, who is now in Iraq. He is currently fighting the stupidest of article 15 charges ever. And hopefully he will be able to beat it. But I'm finally okay with what happened and I'm just honestly glad that he is alive. I can't believe we almost lost him four days ago to an allergic reaction and that his unit is trying to say he did it on purpose. It truly is the dumbest of all things.

On another note, school is going well. I really feel that teaching is what God wants me to do. And through a few of my parents I am learning that I am apparently everything they were hoping to find. Last night I went to a church in town to watch a boy get baptized. What I didn't realize is that one of my students was also getting baptized. And this particular student faces many challenges daily and so I cried when I saw him face his fears when he was baptized. He is such a remarkable child and I am so blessed I was able to be there to witness that.

Chris said that he hopes we are able to find a church for our family. And this church is one we are going to try. I think we are going to go to one of the services next week to see how we like it. I want the girls to see how they like the children stuff as well. We are also going to try back at our old church that we never should have left before and where Whytney goes on Wednesday nights still. We shall see.

Out of 52 weeks of this deployment, we have 50 left. Slowly they will count down and I can't wait. I miss my husband and I need him home.
