practice does not make perfect


...or make it easier to saying goodbye *sigh* we're gonna miss you. take care and know that we are constantly thinking and praying for you. and we are literally counting the days till you are with us once again. but until then, life must go on and we will do it to the best of our ability.

Thinking of all of you. Thanks Jake for doing what you are doing. Thanks V and kids for supporting him while he does it. We love you and have you in our thoughts and prayers.

Yeah, I'm crying, too. Darn it!

Just know I'm praying for your family and planning lots of fun "girl time" for the next year! I've got more than enough projects to keep us both busy in those hours after the kids go to bed.

Jake, if you read this, just know how much we appreciate your service and sacrifice for our freedoms. Take care.
