Deployment

Max is leaving tomorrow morning for Mississippi. He will be there for about 45 days, and then he goes to Iraq. The past year since we found out he was for sure deploying has gone by WAY TOO FAST! I try to think that things could be worse! It could be like back when they couldn't call home. We are going to be very fortunate to be able to use Skype...lucky that Max will be able to call home at LEAST once a week. The hardest thing for me will be going to sleep alone every night...not having him here to hug me when I'm having a bad day...not being able to talk to him when I need him to talk to. 
Thank goodness I will have a little piece of him here with me-our beautiful daughter. She will keep me plenty busy! I feel more sad about him leaving her for a year, than him leaving me. I can imagine his heartache. He's been with me for almost 6 years. But we've only had her for 6 months
I'm gonna try my hardest to keep my head up through this. Not only for me...but for Allie and Max. I need to be strong for both of them.
